RE: [PHP] GD problems

Honestly, I've never seen anything so ridiculous. How is one to know that in order to get one program to work you have to install 28 others. I'm not trying to be a smart ass here, but seriously - No where in any documentation I've read does it say I need to install all these other packages. Would it just not be simpler to add them to the original package, and then check whether or not it's installed - if not, install it. Or at the very least include all the packages needed and the user can install them if need be. By the way, I never saw Marks post - it might have saved me some time if I had though. Thanks to everyone.
