Marco Zinn	Wednesday 21 January 2004 1:23:42 pm Okay, i did a quick install of 3.3-2, Gallery package today. Image scaling of the provided Jpegs and some other Jpegs worked fine with GD 2.0 Also, "grayscaling" works. I had problems with the ezPublish logo (might be some other problem) and with the "border" effect. I guess, GD has no "border" filter. Strangly, i have SOME problems with the "thumbnail" preview, when you edit an image or create a new one, upload a jpg and "save as draft". The thumbnail image just does not appear?! Does anyone have this problem, too? Marco http://www.hyperroad-design.com
Paul Forsyth	Thursday 22 January 2004 12:57:35 am I've wondered the same thing. Is there a handy list/table showing which ez image system features are supported by GD and ImageMagick? I'd prefer just to compile in GD for most things but would like to know just where the differences are. paul
Alex Jones	Thursday 22 January 2004 6:19:49 am I'll second the request for the list. I am sticking to GD for our installs as it is already rolled into PHP, and I really don't want to mess with Image Magick. But, if there are some important features in IM that are not in GD, I may be swayed to change my opinion.
