image question again

When I have an imagecreatetruecolor and I create another one and use
imagecopymerge, how do I keep the backgrounds transparent even if say
the width of the top image is smaller than the back image?
I keep getting a black background where the top image does not cover
the back. It sets the transparency to the rest of the top image as
long as it is covering the bottom one. I think it has to do with the
imagealphablending.
Any ideas?
TIA

If it's just that the images are different sizes, then imagecopyresample
might be the better option.
