That site is also coded in php so I'm guessing that the watermark is added using a php technology.

Can someone enlighten me on how that is done?

Also, while not php related, could someone enlighten me of a really good font to use for watermarking images?


Michael:

Here's an example with code:

This is what I'm doing, it seems to work -

$im=imagecreatefromjpeg($impath);
$text_font="LT_51250.TTF";
imageantialias($im, true);
$imw=imagesx($im);
$imy=imagesy($im);
$string="© " . $somestring;
$lbox=imageftbbox($fontsize, 0, $text_font, $string);
$color = imagecolorallocate ($im, 255,255,255);
$bcolor = imagecolorallocate ($im, 0,0,0);

imagefttext($im,$fontsize,0,($xcord - 1),$ycord,$bcolor,$text_font,$string);

imagefttext($im,$fontsize,0,($xcord + 1),$ycord,$bcolor,$text_font,$string);

imagefttext($im,$fontsize,0,$xcord,($ycord - 1),$bcolor,$text_font,$string);

imagefttext($im,$fontsize,0,$xcord,($ycord + 1),$bcolor,$text_font,$string);

imagefttext($im,$fontsize,0,$xcord,$ycord,$color,$text_font,$string);

header ("Content-type: image/jpeg");
imagejpeg($im);
imagedestroy($im);

where $impath is the filesystem path to where image is stored, $xcord is x coordinate, $ycord is y coordinate.

It does it very nicely.
(I changed font to helvetica - it seems to work a little better for this than lucida mono, largely because it isn't monospace).
