35,969 PointsBlack background when using imagecreatefromjpeg with offset image
Hi There
I'm using imagecopyresample to copy an image into another image into a grid. There are some instances where I need the image to be offset because that's how the user has set the image, but the area of the image that is empty cause it's offset it has a black background.
How can I have a white background instead, I've been trying to come up with a solution with no results, if anyone can help me that'll be great. Heres the code that creates the image with the offset
$jpeg_quality = 90;
$path = "/";
$src = 'wildbush-black.jpg';
list($width, $height) = getimagesize($src);
$new_width = $width ;
$new_height = $height ;
$img_src = imagecreatefromjpeg($src);
$img_dest = ImageCreateTrueColor( $new_width, $new_height );
imagecopyresampled(
$img_dest, //destination image
$img_src, //source image
0, //top left coordinate of the destination image in x direction
0, //top left coordinate of the destination image in y direction
-10, //top left coordinate in x direction of source image that I want copying to start at
10, //top left coordinate in y direction of source image that I want copying to start at
$new_width, //190, thumbnail width
$new_height, //190, thumbnail height
$width, //how wide the rectangle from the source image we want thumbnailed is
$height //how high the rectangle from the source image we want thumbnailed is
);
imagejpeg($img_dest,"test.jpg",$jpeg_quality);
This is the image that is the output of it
