I have a requirement which I have to complete.

I will get lots of images (png) on the server side. On each image I have to embed a company specific logo which is actually another png file but very small in size.

The current project is in VC++.

Solution 1

As a quick-and-dirty approach you may load and draw the original one, then (load and) draw the company logo over it and finally save the resulting image (few lines of code, using GDI+, I guess).

+5, you could also suggest him to read your previous answer; about adding a watermark. See my solution 2.

Nice. :-)

The feature that you're talking about is called a Watermark; watermark is an image or a label added to an image. Which can be added to the images to denote the copyright, or any other such functionality.

Please go through this previous thread[^] and look at the library attached in the first answer.

Visual C++ is just implementation of C++ by Microsoft in their editor; no difference in basic underlying language. So, you can use C++ libraries too.
