Various embodiments include an apparatus comprising a first image database, the first image database to store at least one first image file, wherein the at least one first image file includes a product image file including a digital photograph of a physical product and a header including a size and an imprint area for the physical product, a second image database, the second image database to store at least one second image file, and a server to receive a user selection of the at least one first image file and the at least one second image file, and to generate a composite image of a first image and a second image, wherein the first image includes the digital photograph of the physical product and the second image is positioned relative to the first image based on the size and the imprint area included in the header of the first product image file.

Methods and apparatus for generating composite images

Methods for generating composite images are disclosed. A first image is selected via a Web interface presented on a browser and a second image is selected via a Web interface presented on the browser. The selection of the first image and the second image is communicated to a server via a network. A composite image is automatically generated, which includes filtering to simulate an appearance of the second image as applied to the first image according to a manufacturing process associated with a filter selection. If applicable, an embroidery price of the composite image is automatically calculated, the embroidery price comprising an estimated price for the application of a design represented by the second image to a product represented by the first image. The composite image, along with the calculated embroidery price (if applicable), is communicated from the server to the browser via the network.

Methods for generating composite images including filtering and embroidery price calculation

Methods and apparatuses for generating composite images are disclosed. A first image is selected via a Web interface presented on a browser and a second image is selected via a Web interface presented on the browser. The second image is positioned relative to the first image to generate relative positioning information. The selection of the first image and the second image and the relative positioning information is communicated to a sever via a network and a composite image is generated at the server. The composite image, which includes warping to simulate curvature of the second image as applied to the first image, is communicated from the server to the browser via the network.

Methods and apparatuses for generating composite images including warping

Methods for generating composite images are disclosed. A first image is selected via a Web interface presented on a browser and a second image is selected via a Web interface presented on the browser. The second image is positioned relative to the first image to generate relative positioning information, wherein generating relative positioning information includes selecting a location on a positioning grid via a Web interface presented on the browser. The selection of the first image and the second image and the relative positioning information is communicated to a sever via a network and a composite image is generated at the server. The composite image is communicated from the server to the browser via the network.
