Here is an example using a cURL call   This is better than the file get contents   function  Of course  use base64 encode     url    http   example com     ch   curl init  url   curl setopt  ch  CURLOPT URL   url    curl setopt  ch  CURLOPT HEADER  0   curl setopt  ch  CURLOPT RETURNTRANSFER  true    output   curl exec  ch   curl close  ch     gt    lt img src  data image png base64  lt  php echo base64 encode  output    gt   gt

lt img src  data image png base64  lt  php echo base64 encode file get contents  IMAGE URL HERE      gt   gt    I was trying to use this resource but kept getting an error  I found the code above worked perfectly   Just replaced IMAGE URL HERE with the URL of your image - http   www website com image jpg

You can also do this via curl  just you need a path to an image file and pass it to the function given below    public static function getImageDataFromUrl  url         urlParts   pathinfo  url        extension    urlParts  extension         ch   curl init        curl setopt  ch  CURLOPT URL   url       curl setopt  ch  CURLOPT RETURNTRANSFER  true       curl setopt  ch  CURLOPT SSL VERIFYPEER  false       curl setopt  ch  CURLOPT HEADER  0        response   curl exec  ch       curl close  ch        base64    data image      extension     base64     base64 encode  response       return  base64

Easy    imagedata   file get contents   path to image jpg                    alternatively specify an URL  if PHP settings allow  base64   base64 encode  imagedata     bear in mind that this will enlarge the data by 33   and you ll have problems with files whose size exceed your memory limit

Just in case you are  for whatever reason  unable to use curl nor file get contents  you can work around    img   imagecreatefrompng         ob start    imagepng  img    bin   ob get clean     b64   base64 encode  bin
