# imagecolorallocate

(PHP 3, PHP 4 )

imagecolorallocate -- Allocate a color for an image

## Description

int imagecolorallocate ( resource image, int red, int green, int blue)

imagecolorallocate() returns a color identifier representing the color composed of the given RGB components. The `im` argument is the return from the imagecreate() function. `red`, `green` and `blue` are the values of the red, green and blue component of the requested color respectively. These parameters are integers between 0 and 255. imagecolorallocate() must be called to create each color that is to be used in the image represented by `image`.

    $white = imagecolorallocate ($im, 255, 255, 255);
    $black = imagecolorallocate ($im, 0, 0, 0);

Returns -1 if the allocation failed.
