    Hi DigitalPoint members, I'm making a script for my friend using php gd and is stuck at this point here. He wants a 1px outline to the images generated using php gd, is this possible?

    NOTE: Image border isn't what he wants, he wants a 1px outline around the image itself.

    I know this is possible with text generated, but have no idea with images. I'm currently at a shop outside my house, thus will reply to those who helped me asap. :D

    Thanks!

    Simplest way of doing it, if you need more customizable function, contact me
    
header('Content-type: image/png');
$image = "your-image.jpg";
list ($width, $height, $imageType) = getimagesize($image);
$newWidth = $width + 2;
$newHeight = $height + 2;
$oldImage = imagecreatefromjpeg($image);
$newImage = imagecreatetruecolor($newWidth, $newHeight);
$borderColor = imagecolorallocate($newImage, 255, 0, 0);
imagefill($newImage, 0, 0, $borderColor);
imagecopyresampled($newImage, $oldImage, 1, 1, 0, 0, $width, $height, $width, $height);
imagepng($newImage);
imagedestroy($newImage);
