The Image Merging Tutorial

hey there, i've been wanting to know how to do that for a long time, and i finally ran across a tut on how to!!

BUT, there is a problem, i hope someone can help me with it ^^

When i merge the 2, the insert image gets all distorted kinda...it adds parts to the picture...since i cant really explain it, ill link

65.30.210.152

the tut link is here:
Tutorial

here is the exact code i have for merging the 2 images...

php Code:

Original - php Code
<? header ("Content-type: image/png"); $background = imagecreatefrompng("whitealien.png"); $insert = imagecreatefrompng("pants.png"); imagecolortransparent($insert,imagecolorat($insert ,0,0)); $insert_x = imagesx($insert); $insert_y = imagesy($insert); imagecopymerge($background,$insert,0,0,0,0,$insert _x,$insert_y,100); imagepng($background,"",100);

 
<?
 
  header ("Content-type: image/png"); 
 
 
  $background = imagecreatefrompng("whitealien.png"); 
 
 
  $insert = imagecreatefrompng("pants.png"); 
 
 
  imagecolortransparent($insert,imagecolorat($insert  ,0,0));
 
 
  $insert_x = imagesx($insert); 
  $insert_y = imagesy($insert); 
 
 
  imagecopymerge($background,$insert,0,0,0,0,$insert  _x,$insert_y,100); 
 
 
  imagepng($background,"",100);

pretty much the same as the tutorial, if someone could help me get the 'pants' onto the 'alien' (lol...weird hey?), looking exactly as the image does alone, i'd be suuuper grateful, as it is really running circles around me

thank you ahead of time,
Malice

imagecopymerge($background,$insert,0,0,0,0,$insert _x,$insert_y,100);

Make sure you put the right color value for this line in the code, in this example image background is in 0,0,0 which is back color.

RE: The Image Merging Tutorial

Sorry - but that really didnt make sense

i tried changing them to 255 - in different orders, but it just got rid of the insert image...IF you could explain a bit, i'd be very grateful, if not, then thanks for your time
