Claude, Thank you for your response, but with Efflare's help I have it doing what I needed and then some.
My user uploads 2 images, a "before" and an "after" shot which imageCR3 resizes and optimezes each. Then Imageflare creates 2 text images on saying "Before" in grey and one saying "After" in black. Then imageflare creates a new image with the corresponding textimage aligned left below each image And lastly pastes both finished images together with a border between sized to my setting. I then write the xml file that loads my photo gallery on the fly and my client is very happy.

You could have even better, much better: hundreds of different frames, without having to modify your image.
