note 19385 added to function.imagecreatetruecolor

Here is answer for first question 'why do I need true color images'. True color images you need when you want to work with images such as photos (snapshots), video frames and so on. When you need to combine some these images for user, or to send him only small part of your image, and you try to use 256 colors, image will be ugly (try it if you want). Some colors will change dramatically. "Antialias" lines which you may see are probably the result of using JPEG compression. JPEG is not looseless compression so "small image details may be changed" in order to reduce image size dramatically. On really true-color images such as your snapshots of landscape and so on and using small compression level you will hardly see differences. But on exact objects, such as lines, circles, which you draw on solid background using single color, you can see that if you save and load this image that some details are changed. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.imagecreatetruecolor.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+19385 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+19385 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+19385
