How to go about this program?

[RICK]

Basically I am writing a program where the user enters a doctors name, bio, and selects a picture from their hard disk and this information needs to be saved into a .tiff file. I have the layout of the form and have the picturebox textbox, but I am unsure of how I would save it to a TIFF.

Here is what it needs to do.

[edit]theres no need to have 2 huge images, we get the point: Robby removed the pics[/edit]

Basically I would have the first image load with the program, and then when the user enters all the information, a copy of the image would be created and the text placed on the image. Then the user would save the file. Getting the text onto the image is what I am having trouble with.

How are you trying to draw the text onto the image now?

Thats what Im not sure about. Ive tried searching MSDN, but havent really found anything. I am assuming I have to break the image into frames so I can specify where I want the image and the text placed?

Are you using PictureBoxes to display the images?

 

[RICK]

I am using a PictureBox to load the template image and then the user opens another image they want to add to it. In effect, the templace becomes the background with 3 items being placed on it all being saved (either JPG, TIFF, or BMP; whichever is less hassle).

Here are links to the images so you get a better idea what I am trying to accomplish:
