Here is a piece of code using imagefilledellipse which creates a simulation of the current phase of the moon...
Usage is <img src="moon.php?size=100"> which produces an image 100px by 100px wide. If size is left out, the default is 24px by 24px.
<?php
$mps=2551442.8; // moon phase in seconds (29 days, 12 hours, 44 mins, 2.8 secs)
$position=time()-mktime(10, 32, 0, 1, 25, 2005); // seconds since full moon at 10:32GMT on 25 Jan 2005
$position=($position-$mps*intval($position/$mps))/$mps; // phase from 0 to 1
$position=2*(0.5-$position);
## revised to produce easier to work with...
## $position=1 - full moon
## $position=0 - new moon
## $position=-1 - full moon
$size=$_GET['size'];
if (!is_numeric($size)) $size=24; // width/height in pixels
$moon=imagecreate($size, $size);
$dark=imagecolorallocate($moon, 0, 34, 68); // background colour for moon
$light=imagecolorallocate($moon, 238, 238, 255); // foreground colour for moon
$corona=imagecolorallocatealpha($moon, 153, 153, 153, 64); // edge of moon (semi-transparent)
##
## Make transparent background

$background=imagecolorallocatealpha($moon, 0, 0, 0, 127);
imagefill($moon, 0, 0, $background);
##
## Make the moon!
