CakePHP 3: Undefined Function imagecreatetruecolor

Trying to call a function, but I'm getting an error, the function is really long so here are the important bits.

Avatar.php

namespace App\Utility

class Avatar {
     const spriteZ = 128;
     public static function generateAvatar($hash, $size, $path) {
         // .. code happened before this part, it all worked fine
         $avatar = imagecreatetruecolor(self::spriteZ*3, self::spriteZ*3);

     }
}

The User Controller:

use App\Utility\Avatar;

// ...further down in the code
Avatar::generateAvatar("abcde", 200, "/data/images/avatar.png");

The error I get is Call to undefined function App\Utility\imagecreatetruecolor(). When I make the function call \imagecreatetruecolor(self::spriteZ*3, self::spriteZ*3) I get an error of Call to undefined function imagecreatetruecolor() which seems like the more correct error to have...

I do have php-gd installed, and I am able to use this file as a standalone file (though I didn't have the namespace part).

#Go to installed path php and find php.ini file.

#For example C:\xampp\php\php.ini or everywhere in your computer.

#Open php.ini file and find and change.
