I think you need to change this (here is a simple tutorial http://www.cafewebmaster.com/image-watermark-php):

//Add watermark to the image
if (!(imagecopy($image, $watermark, $watermark_x, $watermark_y, 0, 0, $watermark_w,
    $watermark_h)))

with:

//Add watermark to the image
if (!(imagecopymerge($image, $watermark, $watermark_x, $watermark_y, 0, 0, $watermark_w,
    $watermark_h, 100)))

or use wideImage ;)
