# Image - `Image()` - `Image(finfo $fileInfo)` Validates if the file is a valid image by checking its MIME type. ```php v::image()->validate('image.gif'); // true v::image()->validate('image.jpg'); // true v::image()->validate('image.png'); // true ``` All the validations above must return `false` if the input is not a valid file or of the MIME doesn't match with the file extension. This rule relies on [fileinfo](http://php.net/fileinfo) PHP extension. ## Categorization - File system ## Changelog Version | Description --------|------------- 1.1.0 | Created *** See also: - [Directory](Directory.md) - [Executable](Executable.md) - [Exists](Exists.md) - [Extension](Extension.md) - [File](File.md) - [Mimetype](Mimetype.md) - [Readable](Readable.md) - [Size](Size.md) - [SymbolicLink](SymbolicLink.md) - [Uploaded](Uploaded.md) - [Writable](Writable.md)
