<h2>Description</h2>
<p>Use GammaImage() to gamma-correct an image. The same image viewed on
different devices will have perceptual differences in the way the
image's intensities are represented on the screen. Specify individual
gamma levels for the red, green, and blue channels (e.g. "1.0,2.2,0.45"),
or adjust all three with a single gamma parameter. Values typically range
from 0.45 to 2.6.</p>
<p>You can also reduce the influence of a particular channel with a gamma
value of 0.</p>

<p>LevelImage() adjusts the levels of an image by scaling the colors falling
between specified white and black points to the full available quantum
range. The parameters provided represent the black, mid (gamma), and white
points. The black point specifies the darkest color in the image. Colors
darker than the black point are set to zero. Mid point specifies a gamma
correction to apply to the image. White point specifies the lightest color
in the image. Colors brighter than the white point are set to the maximum
quantum value.</p>
