$colors   = Array();
$colors[] = imagecolorexactalpha($im, 255, 0, 0, 0);
$colors[] = imagecolorexactalpha($im, 0, 0, 0, 127);
$colors[] = imagecolorexactalpha($im, 255, 255, 255, 55);

imagedestroy($im);
?>

The above example will output something similar to:

Array

    [0] => 16711680
    [1] => 2130706432

    [3] => 342163252
