how can I do this? I have an image 50x50 and I would like to generate one with 100x100, where the original 50x50 will be centered inside of that one. The rest would be filled with "transparent". Thanks
This is how you do it:
$old = imagecreatefromjpeg("old_image.jpg");
// Create a 100x100 image
$im = imagecreatetruecolor(100, 100);
$black = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);
// Make the background transparent
imagecolortransparent($im, $black);
// Copy old image on top of new image
imagecopy($im, $old, 25, 25, 0, 0, 50, 50);
// Save the image
imagepng($im, './new_image.png');
imagedestroy($im);
