Hello,
just so I understand this correct, by filter you mean a png that is just laid on top? What about the size, should the filter be scaled to fit the image?

Yeah, exactly. Maybe the better word for it is a frame. The image should be cropped to be square which is the size of the filter, and indeed either the filter/frame should be scaled to fit the image or the image should be scaled to fit the filter.
Hi, this php code would fit the filter to the image:
function apply_filter_to_image($original_image_path, $filter_image_path, $output_image_path) {
// Load the original image
$original_image = imagecreatefromstring(file_get_contents($original_image_path));
// Load the filter image
$filter_image = imagecreatefromstring(file_get_contents($filter_image_path));
// Get the dimensions of the original image
$original_width = imagesx($original_image);
$original_height = imagesy($original_image);
// Get the dimensions of the filter image
$filter_width = imagesx($filter_image);
$filter_height = imagesy($filter_image);
// Scale the filter image to fit the original image
$scaled_filter_width = $original_width;
$scaled_filter_height = ($filter_height * $original_width) / $filter_width;
// Create a new image with the dimensions of the original image
$output_image = imagecreatetruecolor($original_width, $original_height);
// Resize the filter image
$resized_filter_image = imagecreatetruecolor($scaled_filter_width, $scaled_filter_height);
imagecopyresampled(
$resized_filter_image,
$filter_image,
0, 0, 0, 0,
$scaled_filter_width, $scaled_filter_height,
$filter_width, $filter_height
);
// Apply the filter to the original image
imagecopy(
$output_image,
$original_image,
0, 0, 0, 0,
$original_width, $original_height
);
// Overlay the filter image on top of the original image
$filter_x = 0; // Adjust the X-coordinate if you want to position the filter image
$filter_y = 0; // Adjust the Y-coordinate if you want to position the filter image
imagecopy(
$output_image,
$resized_filter_image,
$filter_x, $filter_y, 0, 0,
$scaled_filter_width, $scaled_filter_height
);
// Save the final image
imagepng($output_image, $output_image_path);
// Free up memory
imagedestroy($original_image);
imagedestroy($filter_image);
imagedestroy($resized_filter_image);
imagedestroy($output_image);
}
