Perhaps... but speaking as the guy who wrote gd, it really isn't the ideal way to turn a lot of big originals into thumbnails! (And neither is ImageMagick.) gd and imagemagick shine when you want to add text and other elements to an image and you're not struggling with giant originals and memory constraints. Also multiple back ends in a single plugin tend to lead to diverging featuresets, which is what happened with sfThumbnailPlugin. But I'll give it some thought. pkImageConverterPlugin does work in older Symfony versions. -- Tom Boutell www.punkave.com www.boutell.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "symfony developers" group.
