web site question?

[jabajools]

hi guys,

I've got a web site i want to make. This site needs the visiter to select a font from a selection of 10 with examples of what they look like. They then need to select a color for their font again from a list of 10 or so. After that they need to either select a pictiure from another list of 10 with thumbnails, or to upload their own picture. on doing this i then want the visitor to type a messege, which will be in the color and font they chose earlier. after all this i then want the visitor to be able to preview the final product ( the pictire they have chosen or uploaded with their messege across it in the font and color they chose) before they submit it to me.

how difficult do you think the site will be and what do i need to know to start the project? no timeline here and i learn quickly.


cheers guys.

also any resources you think i could use to help me get there. for example web sites tutorial videos etc.

If I read your post right you are wanting to dynamically add text to an image. This can be done by using php and the GD library of image functions. I've not long finished a script that will create images with user defined text. I used random fonts from a list of fonts however it would be easy enough to have them user selectable.

How long it will take depends on your skill with php. Have a look here for information:
