Re: Thumbnails not generating

I can`t create an image, neither does it show up in my HTML output. The tag <img src="testimage.php"> shows up in the output, but no image is on the page. After opening up those two lines my phpinfo() still shows no heading "gd" I`ll get back to checking what packages are installed....I downloaded and installed "jpeg-6b" as per "PHP & MySQL" manual, I see "zlib 1.1.4" is installed (also manual recommendation)...so I guess I need to recompile PHP using the options you mentioned. Let me get back to the drawing board on this one. I`ll post again once I`ve spent some time with this. In the interim, thanks for the help.
