Re: GD lib. image quality!

its not a gd 2 issue , i cant even get gd2 to compile with php 4.2.2, no idea why i've installed gd2 fine imageJpeg($thumbnail, $targetPath."/".$thumbNamePrefix."_thumb.jpg",100); that'll give it a quality of 100 , even still i notice its pretty bad , i need to use the bicubicresampled gd2 function just need it compiled correctly , how did you get gd2 to work ?
