This is an interesting post.

How is the placement of the round images determined in the first place? I
would assume, since they are place dynamically, there is some logic you
would be using to determine their placement which could be emulated in a UDF
or something. That way whatever you use to generate the image would not need
to return anything.

Umm.... depending on how much of a budget you are on, there are two options
I can think of - 

1) PHP (the free option) offers this functionality natively. 

2) AutoImageEffects (the cheap option) is good for this kind of work if you
do not need to get data back from the image you are creating. More info at

I still use AutoImageEffects every once in a while to generate simple
dynamic maps. It is _really_ easy to learn and use.

I would not rule out spending the money to get a copy of Flash MX. It has a
lot of features that would be useful to you, especially the ability to pass
data back from the movie you generate.

Hi All,

I know Generator could do it by as the usual story goes no Budget.

Any How

What I require is the ability to have a base image for example the out line
of a Football Pitch

Then the ability to track lets say 4 Round Images around the pitch.

When Happy save the image off as a Bitmap and save the X,Y of the top left
of eachof the Round Images

Any Ideas?

Cheers

Kev
