How to framedrop, orient, transparentize, resize, and place one enormous animated gif on on top of another without making photoshop crush your soul/computer. requires p54-imagick (php imagemagick libs)

imagick.php

#!/usr/bin/php
<?
// Load the existing image
$image = new Imagick(dirname(__FILE__) . '/triangle-optical-illusion-1.gif');
// make animation into filmstrip form
$image = $image->coalesceImages(); 


$new_image = new Imagick();

$i = 1;
foreach ($image as $frame) {
	if ($i % 3 != 0) {
		// drop every third frame
		echo $i % 3;
		//create working frame
		$clone = $frame->getImage();
		//rotate image 90 degrees
		$clone->rotateImage(new ImagickPixel(), 90);
		//make background transparent
		$clone->transparentPaintImage('#000100', 0, 10, false);
		//make V bigger
		$clone->resizeImage(480, 480, imagick::FILTER_CATROM, 1);
		
		//write working frame to new image
		$new_image->addImage($clone);
		//set image disposal method
		//2 blanks the image before adding the next frame
		$new_image->setImageDispose(2);

	}
	$i++;
}
//undo coalesce
$new_image->deconstructImages();
//write out reoriented, transparentized V for funsies
$new_image->writeImages(dirname(__FILE__). '/ball-output.gif', true);

	


//merge images
$image2 = new Imagick(dirname(__FILE__). '/keepitlocked-edited.gif'); 
$image2 = $image2->coalesceImages();
$composite = new Imagick();
$j = 0;
foreach ($image2 as $frame2) {
	$clone2 = $frame2->getImage();
	//get the frame of the V analogous to the current KIL frame
	$new_image->setImageIndex($j);
	$intermediate =$new_image->getImage();
	//paste v at center of keep it locked gif
	$clone2->compositeImage($intermediate, Imagick::COMPOSITE_DEFAULT, 410, 90);
	$clone2->flattenImages();
	//downsize image to 570 x 320
	$clone2->resizeImage(570, 320, imagick::FILTER_CATROM, 1);

	$composite->addImage($clone2);
	$composite->setImageDispose(3);
	echo $j;
	
	//belt and suspenders
	if ($j == 242) { break;}
	$j++;	
}
//write out final gif
