Works with jpeg/ png (not palette based) images without a problem, problems arise when used palette based (8bit) images. Resizing via imagecopyresampled/ imagecopyresize works only for images WITHOUT a transparency color set properly. If a transparency color is set in the image, the value of this color is just ignored and a random background color is applied to the "transparent" area. It makes no difference if the image is outputted as gif or 8bit png. If imagecopyresampled/imagecopyresized is called with the same width/height for the source and the target image, the transparency keeps intact. Reproduce code: --------------- I've setuped a few things on a test server: PHPInfo: http://thomaskeller.biz/work/php/PHP_GIF/info.php Testfile: http://thomaskeller.biz/work/php/PHP_GIF/image.php Testfile (Source): http://thomaskeller.biz/work/php/PHP_GIF/image.phps image.php loads http://thomaskeller.biz/work/php/PHP_GIF/rose.gif by default, but you can load an own gif file via URL like image.php?filename=http://your.server.com/file.gif The loaded image is per default resized to its double width/ height. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=33914&edit=1
