Based on the area increase; I'd expect the file size to about
double, not be 4x as large.
$src_img = imagecreatefromgif($filename);
$dest_img = imagecreatetruecolor($new_width, $new_height);
Can anyone explain or have a solution?
Here's my take -- gif's are no longer supported by the GD library
because of patent problems. So development of how to deal with them
has been moved to png.
Gif's have a 256 color palette, but PNG has a 48-bit color palette
and using imagecreatetruecolor() you greatly increase the file size
of the image .
A better choice for your code would be to use imagecreate() which has
a maximum of 256 color palette.
Please post if this works or not.
