In the ideal world that would be true, but 90% of the web graphics files I get from the designers and advertising agencies are still in the gif format. There are still parts of the world where patent issues don't have an affect anyway. As long as there is possibility to patch the php version of gd I'm happy (http://www.rhyme.com.au/gd/). Anyway I think forking gd is an excellent idea. Edin -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
