Todd,
I'm not sure if you can write text to an existing image as I add to a new
one but here is the code I use...
$updateTime = date("F d, Y - h:ia");
$text = "New Movie Reviews @hyrum.net ".$updateTime;
$image = ImageCreate(500, 70);
$bg = ImageColorAllocate($image, 255, 255, 255);
$blue = ImageColorAllocate($image, 0, 0, 255);
$black = ImageColorAllocate($image, 0, 0, 0);
$himage=
ImageCreateFromPNG("/home/hyrum/public_html/images/topics/hyrum.png");
ImageRectangle($image, 0, 0, 500, 70, $white);
ImageCopy($image, $himage, 410, 5, 1, 1, 89, 64);
ImageString($image, 4, 0, 0, $text, $blue);
ImageString($image, 3, 0, 20, $title1, $black);
ImageString($image, 3, 0, 35, $title2, $black);
ImageString($image, 3, 0, 50, $title3, $black);
ImagePNG($image, "signature.png");
ImageDestroy($image);
So you could create a new image and copy your jpg to the new canvas or (and
preferably) someone will know if you can add text to an already existing
image...
