Examples

Example #1 Get colors from the GD logo

<?php
// Setup an image
$im = imagecreatefrompng('./gdlogo.png');

$colors   = Array();
$colors[] = imagecolorexact($im, 255, 0, 0);
$colors[] = imagecolorexact($im, 0, 0, 0);
$colors[] = imagecolorexact($im, 255, 255, 255);
$colors[] = imagecolorexact($im, 100, 255, 52);

print_r($colors);

// Free from memory
imagedestroy($im);
?>

The above example will output something similar to:

Array
(
    [0] => 16711680
    [1] => 0
    [2] => 16777215
    [3] => 6618932
)
