This won't work, because the HOST needs to be able to access the files on
your machine, which is a gross security risk, and isn't possible in this
manner.

The only way I can think of that you would be able to do anything useful
like that would be to have an HTML page load an image using

<img src="C:\images\map.gif">

or somthing like that, but you wouldn't be able to modify that image using
PHP (tho you could use DIVs or something to overlay other details perhaps?)

// Locally in order to Increase the speed. What I'm going to do 
// is put my
// Image in my Local Harddisk...(I'm using Windows), and I put 
// my PHP file
// in my Host (such as Host.sk or something).
// 
// So... I wanna call my Image from my Harddisk thru that 
// file... using a
// GD function...
// 
// I've tried this two silly things.. but it doesn't work 
// 
// $map=ImageCreateFromJPEG("c:/myfiles/img/mdmap.jpg");
// and $map=ImageCreateFromJPEG("file:///c|/myfiles/img/mdmap.jpg");
//
