Help needed here! PHP Image Editor!

Untitled2

Hello all!

Iam trying to create my whole website using only one image and i want to code this image such that it is divided into many parts and each part is linked to some other page.

I want to only place this image on my page.
I mean, i just want to place a single image on my page for example:

and this image must have PHP scripts behind it to be dynamic.
I have seen another website have the same kind of script. Check out www.danasoft.com .

What they did is create a signature which is dynamic. But the image link we use is just this:

the image vipersig.jpg is dynamic which is made of php scripts i guess.

I want to do the same.

I know it sounds a bit complicated but help would be great.

Thank you.

I'm not complitely sure what you're after, but you can create dynamic images with PHP (with GD library, to be exact). Punch of functions that will do the trick:

Ummm........ that wasnt what i was looking for.

But nyway thanks for that.

Anyone else >?

GD library is what you want.

u want to use [man]imagecopyresampled[/man]

Ummm......... can someone explain this?

what do i do with the php file? I understand the code but should i have a file called test.gif and where should i place this php file? ( This is in reference to the link _theworks gave me ).

and one more thing......... all i want is a simple code that can divide an image into many portions and each portion must be linked to a different website Its similar to HTMl image mapping but i want it all in a dynamic image. Any ideas??

Ok wait a minute i think i misunderstood your post.

if you want to make an image like this 1

_theworks

Ok wait a minute i think i misunderstood your post.

if you want to make an image like this 1

you want to use

imagestring to display text on an image.
and if you want to get infomation about the user such as ip or isp just use
$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

Let me come to the point!

Iam trying to post many image in a Vbulletin forum and linmk each image to different sites. but this forum doesnt allow more than 10 iamges. All i want to do create a single image which is a combination of all these and link them to different sites. But a forum doesnt allow PHP scripts so all i can do is create a single dynamic image that is made up of many different images ( Or one image sliced into many ) and each linked to a different site. Do you get that? . Iam kind of like a newbie in creating dynamic images. So tell me how to create the script and how i can connect this script with the image.

Thanks a lot

Helo guys!

I poted before about Dynamic images and didnt recieve good replies. But i have a very simple question here:

check out:
http://evoluted.net/archives/2003/11/imageeditor_cla.php

I used this image editor to edit my images. But i have got some problems. I want to add images instead of text. And i want to use links too! This image editor only allows me too add text or resize or crop the images. Can someone please modify this code to help me add images and links ( Image with links ). Or can someone create a new code or tell me how to do it.........

Thank you,

i dont really see what this is to do with php at all. just get all your images and stick them together in an image editor (ie: photoshop or something), then its just simple html image maps to turn different areas of the image into a link.

_theworks

The ImageEditor class allows you to easily edit images using PHP on the fly. It includes basic image editing functions, such as resizing, cropping, adding text and adding lines.

i dont get it. why would you need a class like this to edit images when you could just use the GD functions directly?

1st. an image cannot have a link in it.

if you want to create a link out of an image use html

(i think a CSS based image map is what your really after...)

2nd. to create an image that consists of several images (this is what i believe you want to do) you can use [man]imagecopy[/man]

hope this helps, if not perhaps you should consider restating your question

Exactly! I want to use image mapping. But i want to do that in my posts in a forum. You must be knowing very well that forums dont allow html or php tags. So how do i do it.

I thought this had something to do with dynamic images or php scripts. So if someone could help me........

Untitled2

LOL...... i know how to link images .... of course.....😛

But what i want to do is place image mapping inside a forum . But forums dont allow html tags or php includes. So anyway i could do it?

Thank you

thorpe

simple.... you cant.
