a little help with making an image with php

Hi

I'm working on a project which needs to generate Images...

we have a "db" full of image addresses and their coordinates (x,y) ...

the only thing that I need is a help, lead or a code for making such a thing:

a image that contains lots of other images (maybe something like "Sprite")...

How can I make that large image with php?

Thank you in advanced

You can use a graphics library like GD or ImageMagick. They will let you manipulate image files in this manner.

I would recommend checking out the ImageMagick website and look at some of their examples. You probably won't find video tutorials about how to do something like dynamically build a sprite sheet; you'll more than likely have to read through the documentation to figure out the individual functions you'll need and then piece them together.
