imagegammacorrect

Name

imagegammacorrect — Changes gamma values in an image.

Synopsis

int imagegammacorrect(image, original, new);
int image: Image identifier
int original: Original gamma value
int new: New gamma value

Returns

TRUE on succes

Description

Changes the brightness/contrast, or "gamma," in an image. Values can be either negative or positive, and the image will become darker or lighter, respectively. By changing the original value, you can alter which parts of the image are affected. When using dynamically created pictures or altering existing pictures, altering the gamma to a setting of 2.2 can be useful, as images at this gamma setting have a similar brightness and contrast on Windows and Macintosh platforms.

Example

Example 423. Lighten an image

header("Content-type: image/png");
$im = imagecreatefrompng("test_image.png");
imagegammacorrect($im, 1.0, 5.0);
imagepng($im);
imagedestroy($im);
