Does anyone know if there an online image and/or flash elements compositing tool available somewhere?

Other than things like that like that link, you'll have to write your own.

The link shows a screenshot of an application that needs to be installed on the computer, but I'm searching for an online tool. So you believe that there's no such thing anywhere? Maybe anyone else bumped into a thing like this?

Yeah, sorry I don't know of anything. Maybe someone else does. Good luck.

Not exactly sure what you are looking for. Can you please elaborate on the tool that you are looking for? Have you tried searching the web, also?

Hi eelixduppy

I believe <snip> still illustrates best what I'm thinking about: picking a background and adding gif, png, jpg and flash elements over it: a flash compositing tool.
Maybe also <snip> is illustrating what I mean, only I don't think creating a framed animation will be possible. The exported media will just be a single framed flash file showing all gif, png, jpg and flash elements you chose and placed... (only the individual flash elements could and should (as that's the strength of using flash for this tool; to be able to compose a vibrant media element to put on your site)) be animated (think of fireworks, stars twinkling, character hopping, ...)

With this, for example, you could load a photo of your own family, dress your dog up; put a radiating sun overheads; add a parasol; give everyone a unique pair of sunglasses, add drinks; .... anything available in the media library as gif, png, jpg or flash!

Added to this it would be cool to be able to let the user choose between image transitions so he can also create slideshows and have motion effects (moving an image around).

Not sure, I cannot find anything similar. My guess is if it exists it's probably not going to be free. You can, however, check some of the open-source stuff. Try looking through the Flash section at hotscripts for something that fits your needs: [hotscripts.com...]

If all else fails, it looks like you'll be stuck making your own with Flash.

Good luck!
