[TYPO3-dev] Using the t3lib_stdgraphic class to combine multiple images and send by email

[Brian Bendtsen]

Hi

I need to send an email with a GIFBUILDER image using a cronjob. What I 
actually need is to combine 2 images. I have been studying the 
t3lib_stdgraphic class and it looks like there are a few methods I can use.

I have tried to experiment with this class for a while now, and I can't 
wrap my head around, how to fetch my rendered image.

Here is some of my code, where I try to create an image with a blue box:

--- begin ---

$imgObj = t3lib_div::makeInstance('t3lib_stdgraphic');
$imgObj->init();
$imgObj->tempPath = PATH_site.$imgObj->tempPath;

$imgRes = $imgObj->imagecreate('567','415');

$imgConf = array();
$imgConf['dimensions'] = "0,0,50,50";
$imgConf['color'] = "blue";
$imgObj->makeBox($imgRes, $imgConf, '0,0,567,415');

$imgObj->ImageWrite($imgRes, 'myImage.jpg', 1);

--- end ---

The ImageWrite function returns a boolean of 1, which means its a 
success I guess, but I can't figure out how to get the image path.

Maybe I'm way off. Any hints are appreciated :)
