imagefilter

    (PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

    imagefilter — Applies a filter to an image

    Description

    imagefilter(GdImage $image, int $filter, array|int|float|bool ...$args): bool

    imagefilter() applies the given filter filter on the image.

    Parameters

    image

    A GdImage object, returned by one of the image creation functions, such as imagecreatetruecolor().

    filter

    filter can be one of the following:

    • IMG_FILTER_NEGATE: Reverses all colors of the image.
    • IMG_FILTER_GRAYSCALE: Converts the image into grayscale by changing the red, green and blue components to their weighted sum using the same coefficients as the REC.601 luma (Y') calculation. The alpha components are retained. For palette images the result may differ due to palette limitations.
    • IMG_FILTER_BRIGHTNESS: Changes the brightness of the image. Use args to set the level of brightness. The range for the brightness is -255 to 255.
    • IMG_FILTER_CONTRAST: Changes the contrast of the image. Use args to set the level of contrast.
    • IMG_FILTER_COLORIZE: Like IMG_FILTER_GRAYSCALE, except you can specify the color. Use args, arg2 and arg3 in the form of red, green, blue and arg4 for the alpha channel. The range for each color is 0 to 255.
    • IMG_FILTER_EDGEDETECT: Uses edge detection to highlight the edges in the image.
    • IMG_FILTER_EMBOSS: Embosses the image.
    • IMG_FILTER_GAUSSIAN_BLUR: Blurs the image using the Gaussian method.
    • IMG_FILTER_SELECTIVE_BLUR: Blurs the image.
    • IMG_FILTER_MEAN_REMOVAL: Uses mean removal to achieve a "sketchy" effect.
    • IMG_FILTER_SMOOTH: Makes the image smoother. Use args to set the level of smoothness.
    • IMG_FILTER_PIXELATE: Applies pixelation effect to the image, use args to set the block size and arg2 to set the pixelation effect mode.
    • IMG_FILTER_SCATTER: Applies scatter effect to the image, use args and arg2 to define the effect strength and additionally arg3 to only apply the on select pixel colors.

    args

    arg2

    arg3

    arg4

    • IMG_FILTER_COLORIZE: Alpha channel, A value between 0 and 127. 0 indicates completely opaque while 127 indicates completely transparent.

    Return Values

    Returns true on success or false on failure.

    Errors/Exceptions

    Throws a ValueError if sub or plus would cause over-/underflow with the IMG_FILTER_SCATTER filter.

    Changelog

    Version Description
    8.4.0 Now throws a ValueError if sub or plus would cause over-/underflow with the IMG_FILTER_SCATTER filter.
    8.0.0 image expects a GdImage instance now; previously, a valid gd resource was expected.
    7.4.0 Scatter support (IMG_FILTER_SCATTER) was added.

    Examples

    Example #1 imagefilter() grayscale example

    <?php
    $im     = imagecreatefrompng('dave.png');

    if(    $im && imagefilter($im, IMG_FILTER_GRAYSCALE))
    {
    echo     'Image converted to grayscale.';

    imagepng($im, 'dave.png');
    }
    else
    {
    echo     'Conversion to grayscale failed.';
    }

    imagedestroy($im);
    ?>

    Example #2 imagefilter() brightness example

    <?php
    $im     = imagecreatefrompng('sean.png');

    if(    $im && imagefilter($im, IMG_FILTER_BRIGHTNESS, 20))
    {
    echo     'Image brightness changed.';

    imagepng($im, 'sean.png');
    imagedestroy($im);
    }
    else
    {
    echo     'Image brightness change failed.';
    }
    ?>

    Example #3 imagefilter() colorize example

    <?php
    $im     = imagecreatefrompng('philip.png');

    /* R, G, B, so 0, 255, 0 is green */
    if($im && imagefilter($im, IMG_FILTER_COLORIZE, 0, 255, 0))
    {
    echo     'Image successfully shaded green.';

    imagepng($im, 'philip.png');
    imagedestroy($im);
    }
    else
    {
    echo     'Green shading failed.';
    }
    ?>

    Example #4 imagefilter() negate example

    <?php
    // Define our negate function so its portable for
    // php versions without imagefilter()
    function negate($im)
    {
    if(    function_exists('imagefilter'))
    {
    return     imagefilter($im, IMG_FILTER_NEGATE);
    }

    for(    $x = 0; $x < imagesx($im); ++$x)
    {
    for(    $y = 0; $y < imagesy($im); ++$y)
    {
    $index = imagecolorat($im, $x, $y);
    $rgb = imagecolorsforindex($index);
    $color = imagecolorallocate($im, 255 - $rgb['red'], 255 - $rgb['green'], 255 - $rgb['blue']);

    imagesetpixel($im, $x, $y, $color);
    }
    }

    return(    true);
    }

    $im = imagecreatefromjpeg('kalle.jpg');

    if(    $im && negate($im))
    {
    echo     'Image successfully converted to negative colors.';

    imagejpeg($im, 'kalle.jpg', 100);
    imagedestroy($im);
    }
    else
    {
    echo     'Converting to negative colors failed.';
    }
    ?>

    Example #5 imagefilter() pixelate example

    <?php
    // Load the PHP logo, we need to create two instances
    // to show the differences
    $logo1 = imagecreatefrompng('./php.png');
    $logo2 = imagecreatefrompng('./php.png');

    // Create the image instance we want to show the
    // differences on
    $output = imagecreatetruecolor(imagesx($logo1) * 2, imagesy($logo1));

    // Apply pixelation to each instance, with a block
    // size of 3
    imagefilter($logo1, IMG_FILTER_PIXELATE, 3);
    imagefilter($logo2, IMG_FILTER_PIXELATE, 3, true);

    // Merge the differences onto the output image
    imagecopy($output, $logo1, 0, 0, 0, 0, imagesx($logo1) - 1, imagesy($logo1) - 1);
    imagecopy($output, $logo2, imagesx($logo2), 0, 0, 0, imagesx($logo2) - 1, imagesy($logo2) - 1);
    imagedestroy($logo1);
    imagedestroy($logo2);

    // Output the differences
    header('Content-Type: image/png');
    imagepng($output);
    imagedestroy($output);
    ?>

    The above example will output something similar to:

    Output of example : imagefilter() pixelate

    Example #6 imagefilter() scatter example

    <?php
    // Load the image
    $logo = imagecreatefrompng('./php.png');

    // Apply a very soft scatter effect to the image
    imagefilter($logo, IMG_FILTER_SCATTER, 3, 5);

    // Output the image with the scatter effect
    header('Content-Type: image/png');
    imagepng($logo);
    imagedestroy($logo);
    ?>

    The above example will output something similar to:

    Output of example : imagefilter() scatter

    Notes

    Note: The result of IMG_FILTER_SCATTER is always random.

    The documentation misses the exact meaning and valid ranges of the arguments for ImageFilter(). According to the 5.2.0 sources the arguments are:
    IMG_FILTER_BRIGHTNESS
    -255 = min brightness, 0 = no change, +255 = max brightness

    IMG_FILTER_CONTRAST
    -100 = max contrast, 0 = no change, +100 = min contrast (note the direction!)

    IMG_FILTER_COLORIZE
    Adds (subtracts) specified RGB values to each pixel. The valid range for each color is -255...+255, not 0...255. The correct order is red, green, blue.
    -255 = min, 0 = no change, +255 = max
    This has not much to do with IMG_FILTER_GRAYSCALE.

    IMG_FILTER_SMOOTH
    Applies a 9-cell convolution matrix where center pixel has the weight arg1 and others weight of 1.0. The result is normalized by dividing the sum with arg1 + 8.0 (sum of the matrix).
    any float is accepted, large value (in practice: 2048 or more) = no change

    ImageFilter seem to return false if the argument(s) are out of range for the chosen filter.

    I needed an especially strong blur effect today and had a hard time achieving adequate results with the built-in IMG_FILTER_GAUSSIAN_BLUR filter. In order to achieve the strength of the blur I required I had to repeat the filter up to 100 times, which took way too long to be acceptable.

    After a bit of searching, I found this answer to be quite a good solution to this problem: http://stackoverflow.com/a/20264482

    Based on that technique, I wrote the following generic function to achieve a very strong blur in a reasonable amount of processing:

    <?php

    /**
    * Strong Blur
    *
    * @param resource $gdImageResource
    * @param int $blurFactor optional
    * This is the strength of the blur
    * 0 = no blur, 3 = default, anything over 5 is extremely blurred
    * @return GD image resource
    * @author Martijn Frazer, idea based on http://stackoverflow.com/a/20264482
    */
    function blur($gdImageResource, $blurFactor = 3)
    {
    // blurFactor has to be an integer
    $blurFactor = round($blurFactor);

    $originalWidth = imagesx($gdImageResource);
    $originalHeight = imagesy($gdImageResource);

    $smallestWidth = ceil($originalWidth * pow(0.5, $blurFactor));
    $smallestHeight = ceil($originalHeight * pow(0.5, $blurFactor));

    // for the first run, the previous image is the original input
    $prevImage = $gdImageResource;
    $prevWidth = $originalWidth;
    $prevHeight = $originalHeight;

    // scale way down and gradually scale back up, blurring all the way
    for($i = 0; $i < $blurFactor; $i += 1)
    {
    // determine dimensions of next image
    $nextWidth = $smallestWidth * pow(2, $i);
    $nextHeight = $smallestHeight * pow(2, $i);

    // resize previous image to next size
    $nextImage = imagecreatetruecolor($nextWidth, $nextHeight);
    imagecopyresized($nextImage, $prevImage, 0, 0, 0, 0,
    $nextWidth, $nextHeight, $prevWidth, $prevHeight);

    // apply blur filter
    imagefilter($nextImage, IMG_FILTER_GAUSSIAN_BLUR);

    // now the new image becomes the previous image for the next step
    $prevImage = $nextImage;
    $prevWidth = $nextWidth;
    $prevHeight = $nextHeight;
    }

    // scale back to original size and blur one more time
    imagecopyresized($gdImageResource, $nextImage,
    0, 0, 0, 0, $originalWidth, $originalHeight, $nextWidth, $nextHeight);
    imagefilter($gdImageResource, IMG_FILTER_GAUSSIAN_BLUR);

    // clean up
    imagedestroy($prevImage);

    // return result
    return $gdImageResource;
    }

    Here is an alternative to IMG_FILTER_COLORIZE filter, but taking the alpha parameter of each pixel in account.

    <?php
    function rgba_colorize($img, $color)
    {
    imagesavealpha($img, true);
    imagealphablending($img, true);

    $img_x = imagesx($img);
    $img_y = imagesy($img);
    for (    $x = 0; $x < $img_x; ++$x)
    {
    for (    $y = 0; $y < $img_y; ++$y)
    {
    $rgba = imagecolorsforindex($img, imagecolorat($img, $x, $y));
    $color_alpha = imagecolorallocatealpha($img, $color[0], $color[1], $color[2], $rgba['alpha']);
    imagesetpixel($img, $x, $y, $color_alpha);
    imagecolordeallocate($img, $color_alpha);
    }
    }
    }

    Function to change the transparency of a png image on the fly. Works only with PNG, and with a browser supporting alpha channel.
    The function stretches the opacity-range of the image, so that the most opaque pixel(s) will be set to the given opacity. (Other opacity values in pixels are modified accordingly.)
    Returns success or failure.

    <?php
    function filter_opacity( &$img, $opacity ) //params: image resource id, opacity in percentage (eg. 80)
    {
    if( !isset(     $opacity ) )
    { return     false; }
    $opacity /= 100;

    //get image width and height
    $w = imagesx( $img );
    $h = imagesy( $img );

    //turn alpha blending off
    imagealphablending( $img, false );

    //find the most opaque pixel in the image (the one with the smallest alpha value)
    $minalpha = 127;
    for(     $x = 0; $x < $w; $x++ )
    for(     $y = 0; $y < $h; $y++ )
    {
    $alpha = ( imagecolorat( $img, $x, $y ) >> 24 ) & 0xFF;
    if(     $alpha < $minalpha )
    {     $minalpha = $alpha; }
    }

    //loop through image pixels and modify alpha for each
    for( $x = 0; $x < $w; $x++ )
    {
    for(     $y = 0; $y < $h; $y++ )
    {
    //get current alpha value (represents the TANSPARENCY!)
    $colorxy = imagecolorat( $img, $x, $y );
    $alpha = ( $colorxy >> 24 ) & 0xFF;
    //calculate new alpha
    if( $minalpha !== 127 )
    {     $alpha = 127 + 127 * $opacity * ( $alpha - 127 ) / ( 127 - $minalpha ); }
    else
    {     $alpha += 127 * $opacity; }
    //get the color index with new alpha
    $alphacolorxy = imagecolorallocatealpha( $img, ( $colorxy >> 16 ) & 0xFF, ( $colorxy >> 8 ) & 0xFF, $colorxy & 0xFF, $alpha );
    //set pixel with the new color + opacity
    if( !imagesetpixel( $img, $x, $y, $alphacolorxy ) )
    { return     false; }
    }
    }
    return     true;
    }
    ?>

    Example for use:

    <?php
    $image     = imagecreatefrompng( "img.png" );
    filter_opacity( $image, 75 );
    header( "content-type: image/png" );
    imagepng( $image );
    imagedestroy( $image );

    From what i have been able to find from this function, it accepts the following arguments:
    IMG_FILTER_NEGATE
    IMG_FILTER_GRAYSCALE
    IMG_FILTER_EDGEDETECT
    IMG_FILTER_GAUSSIAN_BLUR
    IMG_FILTER_SELECTIVE_BLUR
    IMG_FILTER_EMBOSS
    IMG_FILTER_MEAN_REMOVAL

    The following arguments need one or more arguments.
    IMG_FILTER_SMOOTH, -1924.124
    IMG_FILTER_COLORIZE, -127.12, -127.98, 127
    IMG_FILTER_CONTRAST, -90
    IMG_FILTER_BRIGHTNESS, 98

    I haven't tested them all, the names speak for themselves.

    filtertype is an integer. So if you want to use it as a variable and need to use, e.g. preg_match function you can do it in this way:

    <?php
    $filter     = IMG_FILTER_BRIGHTNESS;
    if(     preg_match( '/^[0-9]{1,2}$/', $filter ) )
    {
    //Do something
    }
    ?>

    The order of the filtertypes in this manual determines the number of each filter, from 0 to 11. E.g. IMG_FILTER_NEGATE=0.

    Simple pixelate function, just in case you are < 5.3

    <?php
    function pixelate(&$image, $pixelsize){
    $maxX = imagesx($image);
    $maxY = imagesy($image);
    $rad=floor($pixelsize/2);
    for(    $x=$rad;$x<$maxX;$x+=$pixelsize)
    for(    $y=$rad;$y<$maxY;$y+=$pixelsize){
    $color = imagecolorat($image, $x, $y);
    imagefilledrectangle ($image, $x-$rad, $y-$rad, $x+$pixelsize-1, $y+$pixelsize-1,$color);
    }

    If you're looking for fast sepia effect that can be used for on-the-fly thumbnails generation you can't use sophisticated functions. The faster and much better way than described by webmaster at qudi dot de in the note from 31-Jan-2006 is applying colorize filter AFTER grayscale.

    <?php

    (...)

    imagefilter($yourimage, IMG_FILTER_GRAYSCALE); imagefilter($yourimage, IMG_FILTER_COLORIZE, 90, 60, 40);

    (...)

    ?>

    I used (90,60,40) for my sepia after couple of tests, however, if you need darker or lighter just check what suits you best.

    For people looking to apply a 'multiply' effect on images like the one in Photoshop (generally b&w ones), you can achieve it with the IMG_FILTER_COLORIZE filter.

    <?php
    function multiplyColor(&$im, $color = array(255, 0, 0))
    {
    //get opposite color
    $opposite = array(255 - $color[0], 255 - $color[1], 255 - $color[2]);

    //now we subtract the opposite color from the image
    imagefilter($im, IMG_FILTER_COLORIZE, -$opposite[0], -$opposite[1], -$opposite[2]);
    }
    ?>

    Note: applying IMG_FILTER_EMBOSS to text and using in a customization to the CAPTCHA image script in phpBB or a project of your own is a very good way to stop OCR-ing bots from getting through. Embossed serif fonts are fairly easy for the human eye to understand but to an OCR script it is extremely difficult because it seems to give it the illusion of 3D.

    If you only allocate 2 or 3 colours in the image, it uses the background colour alot in the embossed text, which greatly contributes to this.

    I made my own custom CAPTCHA script to stop phpBB post spam for a client site I was developing and I have gone from getting 2-3 new spam users created every day to zero.

    Anything with the source code freely available out there right now is possible to be defeated by spammers once one of them stars sharing code with the other spammers, but if you run something at least someone custom, their bots will pass you over.

    This will only work if you have php5. For php4, you'll have to use the sepia function set webmaster at qudi dot de suggested.

    This routine was just what I was looking for, I wanted web admin users to be able to recolour their uploaded photos (to go with a news item) either a blue tint or sepia to match the appearance of other colours used on the website.

    Using a form with a select box containing the RGB values, I can give them the option of either of the two tints or no colourization at all, plus resize their images to the viewing size and a thumbnail image on the fly without having to use any other image editing software.

    for a quick, ok-looking, sepia-effect (also in php4) I just use this little fellow, since a real implementation of sepia was just way too slow.

    function pseudosepia(&$im,$percent){
    $sx=imagesx($im);
    $sy=imagesy($im);
    $filter=imagecreatetruecolor($sx,$sy);
    $c=imagecolorallocate($filter,100,50,50);
    imagefilledrectangle($filter,0,0,$sx,$sy,$c);
    imagecopymerge($im,$filter,0,0,0,0,$sx,$sy,$percent);
    }

    Searching for a way to easily change the color of the image, I tried IMG_FILTER_COLORIZE. I was unable to get the quality results I wanted. It turns out PHP's Colorize is the equivalent of Photoshop's "Linear Dodge" layer filter.

    Hue adjustments have always worked well for me, so I figured I could try with PHP.
    This function is kind of slow on larger images, but on small images like what I'm using it for, the difference is trivial.

    The script calculates the ratio or red, to green, to blue in the color provided, then scales the image appropriately... unfortunately, it does it pixel by pixel.

    Here's a demo and comparison of this function, to photoshop's hue function, to PHP's colorize. http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/3167/imagefilterhuedemo.png

    <?php
    function imagefilterhue($im,$r,$g,$b){
    $rgb = $r+$g+$b;
    $col = array($r/$rgb,$b/$rgb,$g/$rgb);
    $height = imagesy($im);
    $width = imagesx($im);
    for(    $x=0; $x<$width; $x++){
    for(    $y=0; $y<$height; $y++){
    $rgb = ImageColorAt($im, $x, $y);
    $r = ($rgb >> 16) & 0xFF;
    $g = ($rgb >> 8) & 0xFF;
    $b = $rgb & 0xFF;
    $newR = $r*$col[0] + $g*$col[1] + $b*$col[2];
    $newG = $r*$col[2] + $g*$col[0] + $b*$col[1];
    $newB = $r*$col[1] + $g*$col[2] + $b*$col[0];
    imagesetpixel($im, $x, $y,imagecolorallocate($im, $newR, $newG, $newB));
    }
    }
    }
    header ("Content-type: image/jpeg");
    $im = imagecreatefromjpeg("test.jpg");

    // Usage: Just as imagefilter(), except with no filtertype.
    // imagefilterhue(resource $image, int $red, int $green , int $blue)
    imagefilterhue($im,2,70,188);

    // The equivalent with colorize, as tested in demo image: imagefilter($im, IMG_FILTER_COLORIZE, 2, 70, 188);

    imagejpeg($im);
    ?>

    A colorize algorithm wich preserves color luminosity (i.e black
    will output black, and white will output white).
    This works in PHP4 and is great for customizing interfaces
    dinamically.

    <?php
    function colorize($img_src,$img_dest, $r, $g, $b)
    {
    if(!    $im = imagecreatefromgif($img_src))
    return     "Could not use image $img_src";

    //We will create a monochromatic palette based on
    //the input color
    //which will go from black to white
    //Input color luminosity: this is equivalent to the
    //position of the input color in the monochromatic
    //palette
    $lum_inp=round(255*($r+$g+$b)/765); //765=255*3

    //We fill the palette entry with the input color at its
    //corresponding position

    $pal[$lum_inp]['r']=$r;
    $pal[$lum_inp]['g']=$g;
    $pal[$lum_inp]['b']=$b;

    //Now we complete the palette, first we'll do it to
    //the black,and then to the white.

    //FROM input to black
    //===================
    //how many colors between black and input
    $steps_to_black=$lum_inp;

    //The step size for each component
    if($steps_to_black)
    {
    $step_size_red=$r/$steps_to_black;
    $step_size_green=$g/$steps_to_black;
    $step_size_blue=$b/$steps_to_black;
    }

    for(    $i=$steps_to_black;$i>=0;$i--)
    {
    $pal[$steps_to_black-$i]['r']=$r-round($step_size_red*$i);
    $pal[$steps_to_black-$i]['g']=$g-round($step_size_green*$i);
    $pal[$steps_to_black-$i]['b']=$b-round($step_size_blue*$i);
    }

    //From input to white:
    //===================
    //how many colors between input and white
    $steps_to_white=255-$lum_inp;

    if(    $steps_to_white)
    {
    $step_size_red=(255-$r)/$steps_to_white;
    $step_size_green=(255-$g)/$steps_to_white;
    $step_size_blue=(255-$b)/$steps_to_white;
    }
    else
    $step_size_red=$step_size_green=$step_size_blue=0;

    //The step size for each component
    for($i=($lum_inp+1);$i<=255;$i++)
    {
    $pal[$i]['r']=$r + round($step_size_red*($i-$lum_inp));
    $pal[$i]['g']=$g + round($step_size_green*($i-$lum_inp));
    $pal[$i]['b']=$b + round($step_size_blue*($i-$lum_inp));
    }
    //--- End of palette creation

    //Now,let's change the original palette into the one we
    //created
    for($c = 0; $c < $palette_size; $c++)
    {
    $col = imagecolorsforindex($im, $c);
    $lum_src=round(255*($col['red']+$col['green']
    +    $col['blue'])/765);
    $col_out=$pal[$lum_src];
    imagecolorset($im, $c, $col_out['r'],
    $col_out['g'],
    $col_out['b']);
    }

    //save the image file
    imagepng($im,$img_dest);
    imagedestroy($im);
    }    //end function colorize

    I played with IMG_FILTER_SMOOTH and tried some negative
    values.

    -1 to -7: looks like a mix of smoothness and edgedetect

    -8: image seems to be completely broken

    -9 and lower: kind of sharpening effect (-9 sharper than -10)

    I think the sharpening effect in particular could be useful.

    IMG_FILTER_COLORIZE doesn't seem to work on palette image, here's a way to achieve same result with palette image:

    <?php
    //$color is an array containing rvb infos (ie: array(255,80,0))
    function paletteColorize($imgResource,array $color){
    $nbColors = imagecolorstotal($imgResource);
    for(    $i=0; $i<$nbColors; $i++){
    $c = array_values(imagecolorsforindex($imgRes,$i));
    for(    $y=0;$y<3;$y++)
    $c[$y] = max(0,min(255,$c[$y]+$color[$y]));
    imagecolorset($imgResource,$i,$c[0],$c[1],$c[2]);
    }
    }
    ?>

    Here's also a function that work on both truecolor and palette images that try to do something similar to greyscale with a given color
    <?php
    function colorScale($imgRes,array $color){
    imagefilter($imgRes,IMG_FILTER_GRAYSCALE);
    $color = self::_read_color($color);
    $luminance=($color[0]+$color[1]+$color[2])/3; // average luminance added by the color
    $brightnessCorrection = $luminance/3; // quantity of brightness to correct for each channel
    if( $luminance < 127 ){
    $brightnessCorrection -= 127/3; // color is dark so we have to negate the brightness correction
    }
    if(!     imageistruecolor($imgRes) ){
    $nbColors = imagecolorstotal($imgRes);
    for(    $i=0; $i<$nbColors; $i++){
    $c = array_values(imgagecolorsforindex($imgRes,$i));
    for(    $y=0;$y<3;$y++){
    $c[$y] = max(0, min(255, $c[$y] + ($color[$y]-$luminance) + $brightnessCorrection) ); // parentheses just for better comprehension
    }
    imagecolorset($omgRes,$i,$c[0],$c[1],$c[2]);
    }
    }else{     // much easier with truecolor
    imagefilter($imgRes, IMG_FILTER_COLORIZE, $color[0]-$luminance, $color[1]-$luminance, $color[2]-$luminance);
    imagefilter($imgRes, IMG_FILTER_BRIGHTNESS, $brightnessCorrection);
    }
    }
    ?>

    with hope that someone will find this useful
