Two types of transformation are supported: Add and Multiply
In Add transformations a value is added to each colour channel: newRed = red + addRedTerm newGreen = green + addGreenTerm newBlue = blue + addBlueTerm newAlpha = alpha + addAlphaTerm
In Multiply transformations each colour channel is multiplied by a given value: newRed = red * multiplyRedTerm newGreen = green * multiplyGreenTerm newBlue = blue * multiplyBlueTerm newAlpha = alpha * multiplyAlphaTerm
