imagecreatetruecolor - Create a new true color image

SYNOPSIS
resource imagecreatetruecolor (int $width, int $height) DESCRIPTION
imagecreatetruecolor(3) returns an image identifier representing a black image of the specified size. Depending on your PHP and GD versions this function is defined or not. With PHP 4.0.6 through 4.1.x this function always exists if the GD module is loaded, but calling it without GD2 being installed PHP will issue a fatal error and exit. With PHP 4.2.x this behaviour is dif- ferent in issuing a warning instead of an error. Other versions only define this function, if the correct GD version is installed. PARAMETERS
o $width - Image width. o $height - Image height. RETURN VALUES
Returns an image resource identifier on success, FALSE on errors. EXAMPLES
Example #1 Creating a new GD image stream and outputting an image. <?php header ('Content-Type: image/png'); $im = @imagecreatetruecolor(120, 20) or die('Cannot Initialize new GD image stream'); $text_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 233, 14, 91); imagestring($im, 1, 5, 5, 'A Simple Text String', $text_color); imagepng($im); imagedestroy($im); ?> The above example will output something similar to:[NOT DISPLAYABLE MEDIA]Output of example : Creating a new GD image stream and outputting an image. NOTES
Note This function requires GD 2.0.1 or later (2.0.28 or later is recommended). SEE ALSO

imagecreate - Create a new palette based image

SYNOPSIS
resource imagecreate (int $width, int $height) DESCRIPTION
imagecreate(3) returns an image identifier representing a blank image of specified size. In general, we recommend the use of imagecreatetruecolor(3) instead of imagecreate(3) so that image processing occurs on the highest qual- ity image possible. If you want to output a palette image, then imagetruecolortopalette(3) should be called immediately before saving the image with imagepng(3) or imagegif(3). PARAMETERS
o $width - The image width. o $height - The image height. RETURN VALUES
Returns an image resource identifier on success, FALSE on errors. EXAMPLES
Example #1 Creating a new GD image stream and outputting an image. <?php header("Content-Type: image/png"); $im = @imagecreate(110, 20) or die("Cannot Initialize new GD image stream"); $background_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0); $text_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 233, 14, 91); imagestring($im, 1, 5, 5, "A Simple Text String", $text_color); imagepng($im); imagedestroy($im); ?> The above example will output something similar to:[NOT DISPLAYABLE MEDIA]Output of example : Creating a new GD image stream and outputting an image.
