ok. i ned to make this site for a friend, i'm stuck at one point on the site. i need to add a page where people can edit uploaded images or images that are currently on the server. i don't need much functionality. all i need is for the user to add text, be able to format the text(color font etc), and be able to drag and drop the text anywhere on the picture and then save the image on the server. i basically need the GUI, but i don't want to use activex. i suppose the best way for this is to use .NET, any suggestions or anyone knows of any examples on the net? if there are any .net programmers maybe you can give me a quote on writing this prog, so i can take it to my friend.

ps. the server uses,
asp
asp.net
and php

thanks in advance

My guess is you'd need a full blown Java applet but I'm not sure since I've never done something like this.

i forgot to add. the server already has the aspimage componenet installed, so the only thing remaining is for the GUI to pass parameters to another page where the other page will take care of the rest (the actual editing and saving of the image)

ps. thanks sep, i'll look into it

i could add the text and logo or other things all right, but i need to make it user friendly. I could add the text with simple php or asp, but i need the GUI. like when you add a text in photoshop you see a texbox you type your text in it, and vuala it's part of the image, you drag the text anywhere on the image. that's what i'm looking for, not something that would reload the picture and page every time you add an effect to it. For example if the GUI let's you add a transparent textbox or a label, after the user clicks continue the parameters of the textbox (pixels from top, pixels from left the font, color, font size) are passed to another page where it creates or loads the image and adds text based on these parameters

here's an example of what i'm trying to achieve, but this thing is only pc compatible, a good portion of the users of the site i blieve will be mac useres, and i don't want to bother the users with changing security settings on their browsers that's why i'm steering away from activex

As far as I know vistaprint is not working properly on macs. before it was not supporting macs at all. It uses layers to let you change the text and images and move them. Using JavaScript you should be able to get the current position of the layer and submit it with the text.
