How can I overlay a watermark on an already resampled image in PHP (using GD) ?
- by Rick
Here's my current code:
define('IMG_WIDTH', (isset ($_GET['width'])) ? (int) $_GET['width'] : 99);
define('IMG_HEIGHT', (isset ($_GET['height'])) ? (int) $_GET['height'] : 75);
$image = imagecreatefromjpeg($_GET['image']);
$origWidth = imagesx($image);
$origHeight = imagesy($image);
$croppedThumb = imagecreatetruecolor(IMG_WIDTH, IMG_HEIGHT);
if ($origWidth > $origHeight)
{
$leftOffset = ($origWidth - $origHeight) / 2;
imagecopyresampled($croppedThumb, $image, 0, 0, $leftOffset, 0, IMG_WIDTH, IMG_HEIGHT, $origHeight, $origHeight);
}
else
{
$topOffset = ($origHeight - $origWidth) / 2;
imagecopyresampled($croppedThumb, $image, 0, 0, 0, $topOffset, IMG_WIDTH, IMG_HEIGHT, $origWidth, $origWidth);
}
It basically takes an image and re-sizes it to create a thumbnail. It works quite nicely. What I would like to do now is add a watermark to the bottom right corner. I've seen the imagecopymerge function used for this... However, that doesn't seem to allow me to supply a resampled image as the source.
How can I take my already modified image and add a watermark? :/
I've thought of saving the image to /tmp and then unlink()'ing it once I've added the watermark but that seems like a bit of a mess...
