red: Value of red component.

Examples

Example #1 Using imagecoloresolve() to get colors from an image

<?php
// Load an image
$im = imagecreatefromgif('phplogo.gif');

// Get closest colors from the image
$colors = array();
$colors[] = imagecolorresolve($im, 255, 255, 255);
$colors[] = imagecolorresolve($im, 0, 0, 200);

// Output
print_r($colors);

imagedestroy($im);
?>

The above example will output something similar to:

Array
(
    [0] => 89
    [1] => 85
)
