That's not a problem. See this:

better browser


The image code (text.php) is:

?php
Header (Content-type: image/gif);
$im = imagecreate (150, 150);
$background = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 238, 238, 238);
$text_color = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 00, 51, 102);//#036 00 33 66 HEX
ImageTTFText ($im, 20, 45, 30, 130, $text_color, arial.ttf,
  Hello World...);
ImageGif ($im);
ImageDestroy ($im);
?

and it's called from html like this:

img src=text.php

If you put this into your site, you'll need arial.tff to make it 
work, but you can find it in lot's of places.

think it's good to go.

There does not appear to be a built-in function that does that...

However, this hack should work:

function image_is_color($image){
  for ($x = 0, $xmax = imagesx($image); $x  $xmax; $x++){
for ($y = 0, $ymax = imagesy($image); $y  $ymax; $y++){
  $index = imagecolorat($image, $x, $y);
  list($r, $g, $b) = imagecolorsforindex($image, $index);
  //If all images are TrueColor, the preceding can be replaced with
  // $r = ($index  16)  0xFF;
  // $g = ($index  8)  0xFF;
  // $b = $index  0xFF;
  // because in TrueColor the index is just the 24-bit color value
  if ($r != $g || $g != $b) return true;
  // You could add || $r != $b, but it's a tautology, no???
}
  }

  //If we made it here, EVERY damn pixel has R==G==B, so it's grayscale
  return false;
}

NOTE:
This is NOT going to be fast, especially for large images, especially
for large gray-scale images, in which EVERY pixel will get checked
before we know it's grayscale.

If you have MOSTLY grayscale images and a few color, switch around the
true/false and the test and make it is_grayscale() so you can bail out
MUCH faster, when the first few pixels prove an image is NOT what you
usually have.

You could also set up a multi-threaded environment and run is_color
and is_grayscale and then time-out the one that takes forever...  This
might be best if you have humoungous images and you are checking them
in a cron job or something.

Still, if you have an image that's all grayscale, and only the
top-right corner is color, or vice versa, you're gonna wait a long
time...

H.

If it's NOT a TrueColor image, and imagecolorstotal() returns a
small number, then you could MUCH faster just do:

function is_color($image){
  for ($index = 0, $total = imagecolorstotal($image); $index  $total;
$index++){
list($r, $g, $b) = imagecolorsforindex($image, $index);
if ($r != $g || $g != $b) return true;
  }
  return false;
}

Which then makes me think that maybe you should do:
function is_color($image){
  $xmax = imagesx($image);
  $ymax = imagesy($image);
  $count = imagecolorstotal($image);

  if ($count  ($xmax * $ymax)){
//call my first version, cuz the image is 'small' in x/y size
  }
  else{
//call my second version, cuz the image has few colors in palette
  }
}

Some benchmarks could be done to refine the test that chooses between
the function bodies -- If imagecolorsforindex() is inherently
slower/faster than imagecolorat() + bit-shifting, then you'd want to
factor in the speed difference.

Have fun!

 I am trying to write an image upload facility, which resizes the images,
 which I am obviously using the GD library for. Does anyone know if there

As far as I know, the GD image functions of PHP do not support TIFF.

A very very very brief search on Boutell's site didn't turn up TIFF
either, so I'm guessing it's just not in GD at all.

One option might be to convert to JPEG using ImageMagik (aka convert).

At that point, depending on your application, you might as well have
ImageMagik scale it too.

You'll need to use http://php.net/exec and maybe mess around with shell
permissions and paths a bit.

GD is great, but for re-sizing your uploaded images, it might be better to
write a shell script in some kind of cron job to resize/move images using
ImageMagik -- If you have to pop out to a shell (which is what exec does,
essentially) you might as well just start (and stay) in the shell anyway. 
YMMV

The last paragraph really only applies if performance is a significant
factor in your upload routine.

 The PHP manual will tell you this. I'll save you the trouble, but next

 Since a certain version of PHP, GIFs are unsupported. I'm told they can be
 read, but as far as producing new ones (resizing, changing, etc.) there's a
 copyright issue over its encryption method. To use GD completely, go wtih
 JPG or PNG. But, there is ImageMagick(?). Check that out. Anyone got a URL?

What errors did you receive?  --with-gd=/path-to-gd works fine with me

Re: [PHP] GD library problem

 This is funny: I have getimagesize(), but not
 createimage() and things like that. Is this because
 getimagesize() is not part of the GD library...? Or is
 there a problem with my GD library?

getimagesize() is not part of GD.  You likely didn't add the GD extension
correctly to PHP.

 Also, is there any resolution to this GIF copyright
 thing going on with Unisys? I want to be able to
 resize images and whatnot, but I don't want to
 multiply image upload time by about 5 because I have
 to switch to JPG format. Is PNG format supported by
 older browsers? Incidentally, getimagesize() works on
 GIFs. I thought GIF format wasn't supported.

The copyright issue really has nothing to do with PHP.  Talk to the GD
folks.  It is not our decision.  With the bundling of GD in 4.3 that
changes a bit, but it only applies to generating gifs, not reading them.
There are versions of GD out there that have jpg, png and gif all

  add the GD extension correctly to PHP.

 That's what I figured, but I wasn't sure about it.
 Dagnabbit. I'm gonna have to try harder with GD. :)

  The copyright issue really has nothing to do with
  PHP.  Talk to the GD
  folks.  It is not our decision.  With the bundling
  of GD in 4.3 that
  changes a bit, but it only applies to generating
  gifs, not reading them.
  There are versions of GD out there that have jpg,
  png and gif all
  included.  PHP supports these hacked versions.

 I know it has nothing to do with PHP. I just thought
 someone might have some news on it.

Re: [PHP] gd library with GIF support

2002-01-31 Thread bvr


Hi,

The GIF enabled versions are not officially available anymore
for reasons stated on GD's website http://www.boutell.com/gd .

And even if you were able to get hold of a copy, compiling it against
the latest PHP is not that easy and may become harder in time.

Therefore it would be recommended to avoid problems in the future and
use PNG instead, however, if you want to use transparency in your images
bear in mind that a number of implementations do not support this.
For example the quicktime plugin that handles PNGs in Netscape 4.x .

Unfortunately this makes it impossible to use GD for certain purposes,
I had this problem when I was trying to migrate websites from PHP 3
to the latest PHP 4 and was unable to compile the older GD lib against
PHP versions  4.05pl1 .

Also check this effort to compile later versions of GD with GIF *and* PNG
support: http://www.acc.ne.jp/~tam/GD/index.en.html

Yea... the main reason of still having to use gif is animation for 
banners.  hmmm  Maybe I'm assuming something - png doesn't support 
animation, right?  If it does, is it easy to convert animated gifs to png?

 Do all versions of the GD library for Linux that are version 1.6 and above
 not support any GIF formats?

Yes, It was removed due to copyright restrictions.
from http://www.boutell.com/gd/manual1.8.4.html :

 Support for GIF has been removed. This step was taken to completely avoid the
legal controversy regarding the LZW compression algorithm used in GIF. Unisys
holds a patent which is relevant to LZW compression.

Re: [PHP] gd library on win2k?

2001-06-25 Thread Richard Lynch

 how can i install the gd library for php on win2k using iis5?

The IIS5 part is irrelevant, I think...

Dig around for a file++ whose name is composed of GD, PHP, and .DLL.

Put it next to all your other PHP DLL files.

Alter your php.ini to refer to it the way it refers to other PHP DLLs.

It's Windows:  Pray.

++ Disclaimer:  I have no idea if such a file exists or not...

 though the file is very much existant.

 Any ideas what is wrong???

 ~Rahul

Try ./configure --with-gd=/usr/local

Then configure will look in lib under that path for the libraries and 
include for the include files.

Re: [PHP] GD library

2001-02-13 Thread Michael McGlothlin

Have you tried Apache Toolbox? If building under Unix w/ Apache as your 
web server it can be a great time saver and if your running into 
problems you can look how it builds something and see how to make it 
work so you'll know later. You can find it easily from Freshmeat.net.
