About the general usage of this extension: I see a lot of people using ImageMagick with exec()/system() since it supports a vast number of imageformats and some other features not supported by gd. Nevertheless, i'm certainly not offended, if you don't want it in the main cvs, but I think a lot of people could see a real use in it. chregu
