Hello all,
I know nothing about php, but a great deal of html and CSS. I usually
hire php developers when I need one, but I want to have a basic
understanding of the possibilities, problems and the amount of work
involved.
This time, I am investigating the possibilities to merge two different
images into one, i.e. on top of each other. The proceeding I have in
mind is something like this:
User select one color image from one directory, i.e. some artwork. He
then selects the frame he like to have the artwork in. All various
frames are also color images, but with a white canvas. When he clicks
"OK", the two images should merge so that the artwork shows inside the
frame.
If I may add to the wish list, the script should also be able to
memorize both the id of the artwork and the frame to use e.g. when
returning to the URL later, or for input into a shopping cart where the
two parameters should be defined.
I think this might be doable using the various watermark scripts, but
have really no idea. Suggestions or tips on how this might be done would
be appreciated, as would some estimation about time consumption and the
skill level required from the programmer.
But there might also be another way to solve this - I think. To put the
frame image onto the page, and then draw up a "layer" (absolutely
positioned div) containing the artwork on top of the frame image.
Any thoughts, ideas, warnings, suggestions are more than welcome. In
case someone can steer me to an already existing application that's for
sale (or free...), that would also be appreciated.
Cheers,
Danny
