i could install GD since i have root access to the server, but i'm unfamiliar with how it works and my php scripting knowledge is minimal at the moment.

I guess you have to try it to learn it...

Might it be possible to construct an image using GD? Layer images of bread slices, toppings and whatnot... perhaps show it as a png?

I suppose the mechanics of it don't really matter all that much, as it is probably feasible even using Javascript, if not GD or Flash. All you need is the right kind of pictures.

I'd considered most of those (well apart from the empty plate ), although i dont have anywhere near enough flash knowledge to do it that way.

The idea of "filling" the isometric pictures with an image of a filling might work... but only if i can grab a decent pic.

Thanks peeps.

Any other suggestions, keep em coming.

Well, one option is to take a picture of every sandwich combo possible. But I'm sure that doesn't sound fun (or practical).

Why don't you try taking a picture (or finding one) of each topping, and using the same method of stacking the pictures you had for the isometric one?

You could use php and flash together. Although I do not have the technical detail of how, i know it can be done.
Downside: using flash (yucky)

How about showing an empty plate with a few crumbs with a comment like "That such and such sandwich with such and such filling was so yummy and fresh it just had to be eaten, if you were here it would of only cost you ..."
