[Interest] Design shhirts using Qt OpenGL

Fri Feb 3 17:42:55 CET 2012

Forget I even mentioned Qt. It is onlt for an experienced web/Qt developer anyway. Yes it's technically possible but I'd probably not go that route myself. 

You'd use PHP's GD to create your images. Depending on your level of drawing flexibility, you might be able to use ImageMagick as someone said. There are PHP bindings for it: http://php.net/manual/en/book.imagick.php This route is probably more up your alley as GD is used for charts and things, and ImageMagick is for pictures. You can combine your pictures and such.

Forget GL, you need nothing that GL provides. You just need to work with raster images. Imagemagick will do that. 

If my understanding is correct, you'd create an image of a T shirt (I'd use inkscape) and export several Tshirt images in various colors as PNG.  Then I'd convert your design to PNG (with the tranparency layer) and then just have a foreach loop combine the T-shirt and design images into a 3rd image that is posted on your website. You can do it live or as a batch script that you only run when new images are added. 

That's as much advice as I can give. And really this is now off-topic for this list.

Jason I have some queries. Can I use Qt's QGraphicsView to render PHP gd Library's graphics.??? Can I design shirts using gd libray with diferent colors??...If I am able to use Qt then I can also be able to use openGL right??......Please tell me how I should proceed. I need create images of shirts with different colors and then create picture of them and render on the web.

That's great Jason I am really thankful to you for this information.Thanks for the tutorial I am going through this, if in this aspect I need some more help I'll post it, I am worrying it may be out of our Qt discussion. Anyways Thanks a lot.

>>> Martin you have given a very informative reply  for me. I want to do exactly like that. Some graphics rendering tool that'll generate PNG images on the fly to the web-server based on the input from the client. I am checking the tool ImageMagic I hope this'd help me. Actaully I want to design some shirts on the graphics tools, based on the user selection from the client those images should be produced and send  the produced images to the client. 
>>>Can ImageMagic do that ??.....Please tell me in some more detail so that I gain some confidence to go forward with this tool. And how I'd talk to the server is ASP.NET is a good tool for the webapplication that'll talk to the graphics tool. Do  I need to deploy the tool on the server??? Can Communication be established  between the graphics tool and webapplication???....Thanks a lot for your help...
