Images are shown with VERY low quality!

[u214]

So. I'm using this code right here:

<?php
$imagepath = "css/images/statspage.jpg";

$image = imagecreatefromjpeg($imagepath);

$imgheight = imagesy($image);

$color = imagecolorallocate($image, 255, 255, 255);

imagestring($image, 5, 70, $imgheight-50, "This is a test", $color);

header('Content-Type: image/jpeg');

imagejpeg($image);
?>

It works like it should. Now my problem is, is that the image is being displayed at a very low quality!

 

Here's the original image:                   

 

Here's the image with the code above:

 

RIGHT away you can tell the HUGE difference. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Maybe i need a higher res image?

If y'all guys know a different method THAT also achieves the same thing I'm trying to do. Please let me know ASAP!

Try using this...

<?php
$imagepath = "css/images/statspage.jpg";

$image = imagecreatefromjpeg($imagepath);

$imgheight = imagesy($image);

$color = imagecolorallocate($image, 255, 255, 255);

imagestring($image, 5, 70, $imgheight-50, "This is a test", $color);

header('Content-Type: image/jpeg');

imagejpeg($image, NULL, 100);
?>

 

Tell me how it goes.

I guess I should get into reading more about the PHP function parameters.
