Re: [PHP] Gradients in PHP GD

Over-complicating it? Yes, I must admit that's true. The problem however was not that I didn't understand the question, but that I apparently was hostile. For someone extra-sensitive, I think I could've looked like that, but I still don't think I was out of line with my original reply, which

Re: [PHP] Gradients in PHP GD

Well, I'm deeply moved by your concern - I don't think I was either hostile or impatient however - I was just stating the obvious and implying a question (why isn't it straightforward). That was my problem with your post--why imply the question, and leave it open to interpretation? Why not

Re: [PHP] Gradients in PHP GD

Yes please, I would appreciate if you send the code snippet. In fact I have rather same kind of demand for the code. My script should change the color in more than one place and the distance between the key points varies. But I'm sure I can modify the code to meet my needs. Ville Lainaus
