RE: [PHP] can't generate gif!!!

2001-07-08 Thread Ben Bleything

Also, if you don't need to do this on the fly (or even if you do, in
certain cases) just use 'convert', a standard unix tool (fairly
standard, anyway).  So if, for instance, your users are uploading a gif,
and you need a png (so that you can tweak with it), you could write it
to a file, and then 

echo `convert upload.gif output.png`;
your_functions_here('output.png');

what gdlib version do you use, as gif support is removed in the newer
versions, due to license stuff.
