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
Hi Danny,
Unless I've missed something, couldn't you just position the "Frame" image
on top of the "Picture" image using style="position: absolute; top: 100px;
bottom: 200px;" as the canvass area in the "Frame" picture is transparent?
Andy
