Image Painter
theskp - March 7, 2008 - 10:47
Image painter provides dynamic image creation capabilities by providing a theme hook (theme_painters) to define sequences or chains of image IO, manipulation and drawing operations in a manner similar to forms.
The painter itself provides image loading and saving operations, while additional operations can be added by downloading (or developing) and installing modules that provide these operations.
Modules currently included with the painter, and the operations they provide:
- Painter: Theming hook as well as image loading and saving
- Drawing: Drawing of pixels, lines, rectangles and ellipses, text and vertical or horizontal gradients
- Imaging: Drawing, rotating, flipping, cropping, scaling and creation of images, as well as 'gluing' images together vertically or horizontally
- Reflection: Reflection effect on images and text
A demonstration of the painters functionality can be found in a theme called Reflek.
The painter uses GD for its imaging operations, so make sure your PHP installation has GD support.
