    $info = pathinfo($_FILES['file']['name']);
    $ext = $info['extension']; // get the extension of the file
    $newname = "testing".".".$ext; 
    $target = 'uploads/'.$newname;
    move_uploaded_file( $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $target);;
    $filename=$newname;
    if($ext=='jpg'||$ext=='jpeg') 
    {
        $im = imagecreatefromjpeg('uploads/'.$filename);

    $oy = imagesy($im);
    $nm = imagecreatetruecolor(245, 184);
    imagealphablending( $nm, FALSE );
