Hamid Thanks for the reply. I was told that using html2ps and ps2gif via php pipes (if that's the right word) would let php go to a site and "browse" the page, print it off as postscript and then convert the postscript file to a gif. not sure if that is possible which is why I posted to the list. Any suggestions would be appreciated! :)
