note 80871 added to function.imagelayereffect

I found the following example on a Chinese site and translated and adjusted it. It creates a portrait from the sample picture. <?php // Portrait image $im = imagecreatefromjpeg( "sample.jpg"); // Get width and height $w = imagesx($im); $h = imagesy($im); // Non-through $c_visible = 0x007F7F7F; // Background (black) $c_bg = 0x00000000; // Create mask $im_mask = imagecreatetruecolor($w,$h); imageFilledRectangle($im_mask, 0,0, $w,$h, $c_bg); imageFilledEllipse ($im_mask, $w/2,$h/2, $w*.9,$h*.9, $c_visible); // Only overlay seems to something useful imagelayereffect($im_mask, IMG_EFFECT_OVERLAY); imagecopy($im_mask, $im, 0,0, 0,0, $w,$h); imagedestroy($im); imagepng($im_mask); imagedestroy($im_mask); ?> Try removing the 'create mask' code and just add another image with 'createimagefromjpeg' to see 'normal' overlay. It blends the colors like different layers in Photoshop. ---- Server IP: 217.13.201.10 Probable Submitter: 79.202.188.157 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.imagelayereffect.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/80871 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80871/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80871/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80871/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80871/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80871/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80871/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80871 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/80871 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
