Would it be able to do the > same things as GD? to be honest - i don't know as i haven't really used GD. but i think gd is more for creating stuff "on the fly" whereby Magick is i "real image processor". we use Magick to convert, crop, reduce etc images, but that is all "batch-oriented". i want to use php3 as or language for batch oriented stuff as well (so we don't have to use perl and php)... therefore i'm considering writing a native-php interface to magick. i want to be able to do stuff like that: <?php $image = new Magick("my-photo-cd-file.pcd"); $image->setMaxWidthOrHeight(150); // create a thumbnail $image->addWatermark("mycopyright.gif",0,0); // add my copyright logo to the top left corner of the picture Header("Content-Type: image/png"); $imge->writeAs("png"); ?> again, that's just an idea (very vage...;-) - but i could REALLY use it like that!!! regards, tc regards, tc > > > Bye, > Sander. > > -- > PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ > To unsubscribe send an empty message to php-dev-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > For help: php-dev-help@lists.php.net -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe send an empty message to php-dev-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For help: php-dev-help@lists.php.net
