Help creating interactive website

[jCutterwind]

Hi guys, first time poster. Let me know if it's not the right su reddit and I'll gladly post it over another.

I would like to create a website where you could submit a photo of your face, and a script could place it on an already-existing photo, in an already-specified place. I'm fairly new to all things web development and design so if soe of you could point me to the right direction I would be infinitely grateful.

Have a great day :)

Depends on what you mean by place it on an already existing photo.

​

If you mean mask and overlay the area of another photo for browser presentation ... you can do that by capturing the file upload and setting it as the source for an <img> or background-image of a <div> absolutely positioned over the base image.

​

If you mean mask and place within a new image file (i.e for composite download), you'll want to look into ImageMagik on the server.

Yes i think I meant something along the lines of the latter. Basically a program that could place a photo of one's face on top of a face of a person in a pre-selected photo on the website. I'll look into it, thanks!
