Stupid image functions...

[Jubba]

Might as well post this question here as well.. someone may learn something... I'm have a bit of trouble with the PHP image functions. The code is running correctly, but it doesnt' show up as clearly as I would like it to...I'm trying to draw a J on the image. Here is the code:


<?
header("Content-type: image/jpeg");

$j_zero = array("1", "1", "1", "1", "1", "1", "1", "1", "1", "1");
$j_one = array("0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "1");
$j_two = array("0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "1");
$j_three = array("0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "1");
$j_four = array("0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "1");
$j_five = array("0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "1");
$j_six = array("1", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "1");
$j_seven = array("1", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "1");
$j_eight = array("1", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "0", "1");
$j_nine = array("0", "1", "1", "1", "1", "1", "1", "1", "1", "0");
$letterJ = array($j_zero, $j_one, $j_two, $j_three, $j_four, $j_five, $j_six, $j_seven, $j_eight, $j_nine);


$im = ImageCreate(100, 20);

ImageColorAllocate($im, 255,0,0);

$x_start = 20;
$y_start = 5;

for($i=0;$i<sizeof($letterJ);$i++)
{
for($j=0;$j<sizeof($letterJ[0]);$j++)
{
if($letterJ[$i][$j] == 1)
{
ImageSetPixel($im, $x_start+$j, $y_start+$i, 255255255);
}
}
}




ImageJPEG($im);
ImageDestroy($im);
?>


but this is what it gets me: http://www.bluefinatlantic.com/egTest/imageFunc/random/random2.php

and thats not exactly clear now is it?

if you printscreen it and zoom-in in paintbrush, you'll see that the lines that it's drawing are 1px wide each.. if you make them wider (double the 1's in the array) it should be much clearer :)

[Jubba]

actually I figured out the problem. It was becuase I was outputting as a jpg. A png, or a gif would be much clearer:) Now I just have to get my stupid function to work and I'll be all set :)

[ahmed]

lol.. im very interested in seeing the results :beam:

here is what I have so far!

the code is here (but its messy):

Once I have more time to work on it, I will make the code better, shorter, and more efficient. :) But if you are interested then I might as well show you now ;)

http://www.bluefinatlantic.com/egTest/imageFunc/random/random2.php that's awesome really.. im impressed =)

[Jubba]

I'm excited. This will end up being my footer but completely code generated and entirely random. :)

[Jubba]

lol, now it should show up as random bgcolors...

[ahmed]

awesome!

when i grow up, i wanna be just like you! :P

You gunna share the code? :chinaman:

[Jubba]

no :P

yeah once I fix it up a bit. I started working on something else as well (can't stay focused for too long on one thing...)

[BobbyDouglas]

2 months later... You gunna share the code?

[DigitalPimp]

What is the point of this script?? I don't really understand the reasoning behind it. Why not just make a image with a clear BG and then put a span around it and do a random on the span BG color?

[Jubba]

It was just getting into the image functions of PHP. I honestly haven't modified the code since I posted this... if I find it I'll try to clean it up, but the code would be pretty much the ssame...
