PHP image resize function doesn't work properly

Question

I want to resize an image PNG with transparence plz help. Here is the code :

function createThumb($upfile, $dstfile, $max_width, $max_height){
   $size = getimagesize($upfile);
   $width = $size[0];
   $height = $size[1];
   $x_ratio = $max_width / $width;
   $y_ratio = $max_height / $height;
   if( ($width <= $max_width) && ($height <= $max_height)) {
           $tn_width = $width;
           $tn_height = $height;
   } elseif (($x_ratio * $height) < $max_height) {
           $tn_height = ceil($x_ratio * $height);
           $tn_width = $max_width;
   } else {
           $tn_width = ceil($y_ratio * $width);
           $tn_height = $max_height;
   }
   if($size['mime'] == "image/jpeg"){
           $src = ImageCreateFromJpeg($upfile);
           $dst = ImageCreateTrueColor($tn_width, $tn_height);
           imagecopyresampled($dst, $src, 0, 0, 0, 0, $tn_width, $tn_height,$width, $height);
           imageinterlace( $dst, true);
           ImageJpeg($dst, $dstfile, 100);
   } else if ($size['mime'] == "image/png"){
        $src = ImageCreateFrompng($upfile);
        $dst = ImageCreateTrueColor($tn_width, $tn_height);
        imagecopyresampled($dst, $src, 0, 0, 0, 0, $tn_width, $tn_height,$width, $height);

      // integer representation of the color black (rgb: 0,0,0)
     $background = imagecolorallocate($dst, 255, 255, 0);
     // removing the black from the placeholder
     imagecolortransparent($dst, $background);

     // turning off alpha blending (to ensure alpha channel information
     // is preserved, rather than removed (blending with the rest of the
     // image in the form of black))
     imagealphablending($dst, false);

     // turning on alpha channel information saving (to ensure the full range
     // of transparency is preserved)
     imagesavealpha($dst, true);


              Imagepng($dst, $dstfile);

      } else {

           $src = ImageCreateFromGif($upfile);
           $dst = ImageCreateTrueColor($tn_width, $tn_height);
           imagecopyresampled($dst, $src, 0, 0, 0, 0, $tn_width, $tn_height,$width, $height);
           imagegif($dst, $dstfile);
   }
}

The image source :

The current result (that I don't want) is :

How can I resize the image and maintain the transparency of the background color? Need help, please. Thanks.

Hope this can help... I dont deserve credit for this code... just found it op net... enjoy

Answer 2

imagecopyresampled is in the wrong place. This should be called after you have set the background colour:

$src = ImageCreateFrompng($upfile);
$dst = ImageCreateTrueColor($tn_width, $tn_height);

// use imagecolorallocatealpha to set BG as transparent:
$background = imagecolorallocatealpha($dst, 255, 255, 255, 127);

// turning off alpha blending as it's not needed
imagealphablending($dst, false);

// turning on alpha channel information saving (to ensure the full range
// of transparency is preserved)
imagesavealpha($dst, true);

// Do this here!
imagecopyresampled($dst, $src, 0, 0, 0, 0, $tn_width, $tn_height,$width, $height);

Imagepng($dst, $dstfile);
