That's a good suggestion.  And I'd LIKE to eventually do this in flash.
But...I REALLY want to do this without Flash.  No, I'm not trying to make
this hard on myself on purpose, I just want a pure code solution.  Let me
explain a little further.


The paper doll is not an interactive application.  It's going to be a web
service.  The client will call my web service, and pass in attributes that
specify the base model as well as the "clothes" that the model is wearing.
The resulting image will then be created on my server and the calling page
will link to the image from there server.


Again, eventually I would like to do this stuff in Flash, but right now I
want to do it all in code.  Thanks!!

Instead of doing this on the server, I'd recommend that you consider putting
all of this stuff in a Flash client.
