(image after watermarked with gmail logo)

Those who haven’t seen  the online photoshop tool created by me, just click here: http://www.sajithmr.com/photoshop

Today we will implement the watermarking on images using php gd library. Intelligent watermarking means, apply a logo or a watermark image on another image by measuring the color depth of the applied image. For this water marking, use png images as logo or watermark  for better results.

Live example for watermark implementation: http://sajithmr.com/photoshop-tuts/watermark/addwatermark.php

You can see different watermark location by changing the x1,y1 and x2,y2 parameters of the following url:

http://sajithmr.com/photoshop-tuts/watermark/showresult.php?x1=405&y1=285&x2=520&y2=392&width=115&height=107

See the watermark php source code here: http://sajithmr.com/photoshop-tuts/watermark/watermark.class.txt

Download the full-source code of watermarking implementation using php+gd from here: http://sajithmr.com/photoshop-tuts/watermark.rar

Today we will discuss about cropping of images using php and gd library.

Look at the simple example here:

http://www.sajithmr.com/photoshop-tuts/crop/simplecrop.php

$x1 = $_GET['x1'];
$y1 = $_GET['y1'];

$x2 = $_GET['x2'];
$y2 = $_GET['y2'];	

$image_object =   imagecreatefromjpeg('hari.jpg');
$image_cropped =  Crop($image_object,$x1, $y1, $x2,$y2);
$temp_path = rand(1,99999)."hari.jpg";
imagejpeg( $image_cropped,$temp_path);

header('Location: simplecrop.php?img='.$temp_path );	  

?>

Here the Crop function is doing the real work. x1 and y1 are Top-Left Coordinates of new image and x2, y2 are the Bottom-Right .

Here is the function for Crop

function Crop($image, $xpos1,$ypos1,$xpos2,$ypos2)
	{
		require_once('class.cropcanvas.php');
		$cc =& new CropCanvas();
		$cc->loadImageFromObject($image);
		$cc->cropToDimensions($xpos1, $ypos1, $xpos2,$ypos2 );
		return $cc->getImageObject();

	}

?>

You can see the class.cropcanvas.php file from the attachment.

In the above example, we have to enter each coordinates manually. See the example below:

http://www.sajithmr.com/photoshop-tuts/crop/realcrop.php

Here you can select the area by click and drag (like orkut)

This is implemented with the help or jslib javascript. The given attachment in the end of this post contains the all.

Today we will implement hows to resize photo into a particular width and height (or keeping aspect ratio)

See the live example from: http://www.sajithmr.com/photoshop-tuts/resize/resize.php

You need to install php-gd library to do this. To functions, imagecreatetruecolor and imagecopyresampled will do the resizing.

Those who have not seen the Online Photo Editing tool yet, have a look at: http://www.sajithmr.com/photoshop/index.php 

Here is the function:

function Resize($image,$new_width,$new_height=0)
{

 $old_width = imagesx($image);
 $old_height= imagesy($image);

 if($new_height==0) // if the height is not specified
                           //....calculate the relative height
 $new_height= $new_width * $old_height / $old_width ;

 $new_image= imagecreatetruecolor($new_width, $new_height);
 imagecopyresampled($new_image, $image, 0, 0, 0, 0, $new_width,
 $new_height, $old_width, $old_height);
 return $new_image;

}

Here the $image is the object of the image which is created from the function imagecreatefromgif($path_to_photo), if the image is in GIF format.

Other functions are imagecreatefromjpeg and imagecreatefrompng for JPEG and PNG respectively .

In the previous part we implemented browse photos area. http://www.sajithmr.com/online-photoshop-in-php-series-part-2/

In that for browsing picture files, we used full size image, instead of thumbnails. Here new example , in which browse photos is implemented with image thumbnails using resizing (150 px)

The difference is , instead of calling img tag’s src to the orginal image path, called through resize.php?img=path_to_image , passed the image path as parameter to resize function.

See live example: http://www.sajithmr.com/photoshop-tuts/browse-resize/browse.php

Take the html and see the difference from old browse implementation: http://www.sajithmr.com/photoshop-tuts/browse.php

Which is fast ??
