[RESOLVED] Watermarking problem

[borlandology]

Hi
I get the following error:

Warning: imagesx(): supplied argument is not a valid Image resource in C:\xampp\htdocs\300tomani\admin\watermark.php on line 15

Warning: imagesy(): supplied argument is not a valid Image resource in C:\xampp\htdocs\300tomani\admin\watermark.php on line 16

Warning: imagecopy(): supplied argument is not a valid Image resource in C:\xampp\htdocs\300tomani\admin\watermark.php on line 24

Warning: imagedestroy(): supplied argument is not a valid Image resource in C:\xampp\htdocs\300tomani\admin\watermark.php on line 29

Code of watermark is :

(File name is waremark.php)

<?php 

function waremark($filename){

$imagesource =  "../film/big/$filename"; 
$filetype = substr($imagesource,strlen($imagesource)-4,4); 
$filetype = strtolower($filetype); 
if($filetype == ".gif")  $image = @imagecreatefromgif($imagesource);  

if($filetype == ".jpg")  $image = @imagecreatefromjpeg($imagesource);  

if($filetype == ".png")  $image = @imagecreatefrompng($imagesource);
if (!$image) die(); 
$watermark = @imagecreatefrompng('afghanistan.png');   

$imagewidth = imagesx($image); 
$imageheight = imagesy($image);  

$watermarkwidth =  imagesx($watermark); 
$watermarkheight =  imagesy($watermark); 
//$startwidth = (($imagewidth - $watermarkwidth)/2); 
//$startheight = (($imageheight - $watermarkheight)/2); 

$startwidth = $imagewidth - ($watermarkwidth+5) ;
$startheight =$imageheight- ($watermarkheight+5) ;


imagecopy($image, $watermark,  $startwidth, $startheight, 0, 0, $watermarkwidth, $watermarkheight); 
//imagejpeg($image);
imagejpeg($image, $imagesource, 70);

imagedestroy($image); 
imagedestroy($watermark); 
}

?>

And the following code is to use waremark.php:

 include_once "watermark.php";

 waremark($bigpicname);

Help me plz, thanks

For starters, you should remove the '@' error suppressor from the calls to the imagecreatefrom*() functions. IMHO, you should never use this suppressor as it's only a hindrance.

Second, try doing a [man]var_dump/man on $image just before you call imagesx() - what do you get?

[borlandology]

Ok i removed it and noew add this to other errors:

Warning: imagecreatefrompng(afghanistan.png) [function.imagecreatefrompng]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\xampp\htdocs\300tomani\admin\watermark.php on line 12

[bradgrafelman]

Well there's the root of your problems. Where is this 'afghanistan.png' file?

[borlandology]

Here it is:
C:\xampp\htdocs\300tomani\film\small
C:\xampp\htdocs\300tomani\film\big

the problem is this damn line !:
LINE12: $watermark = @imagecreatefrompng('afghanistan.png');

---

I really appreciate if u help me on this but commenting out "waremark($bigpicname);" ignored it to be watermarked and error has gone (I know this is not the solution).

[bradgrafelman]

Well the problem is you have to give PHP the correct path to the image - it can't read your mind and find the appropriate file.

If 'afghanistan.png' isn't in the same directory as the script, then you have to use either a relative or absolute path that tells PHP exactly where the file is, e.g. "../film/small/afghanistan.png' or something like that.

[borlandology]

Yes yes yes... Bingo !!
"the problem is you have to give PHP the correct path to the image"
This is the big guide! and it is working perfect now... 😃
U know? this puts a watermark picture on the pictures which is so useful, i've never seen such thing before 😃

THANKS A MILLION MAN
