Question on auto stamping images?

iBuddy_Media

I been to a few sites...a great example on what I'm trying to do is www.Photodisc.com. Okay, when you get a image on their site I noticed that they have their logo on the upper left hand side of each and every image in the exact same spot. Is there some kind of script I can do to run that for all my images? I'm trying to copyright all them and this sounds like a great way of doing that. I hope someone can help out!

Hi,

You can do these things with the GD library.
If you do not want to figure out.. You could of course consider asking Mordecai to include it in hit library:

With the GD library you can create and minipulate images. One of the things you can do is combine two images into one. You could thus loop through your directory with images, and for every image found, adda logo on top. Or you could do this on the fly, specified in a function ina seperate file, and display your images:
<img src=\"overlay.php?someimage.jpg\">

But GD library is quite extensive & complex. So have a read though the general info on it.

Well.. Probably is. Search the web.

Or.. As I suggested.. Mordecai is creating a functional library. You could suggest including it to him.
