What I know is that you can control GIMP over the command line = you can use  PHP to do this.

Though I guess GIMP doesn't support PSD files, I had to express myself anyways. vuthecuong napsal(a):

        
Hi all

Is there a way to create/read/write to psd file? (photoshop format) I would like to hear opinion form you: Do you recommend gd2 or imageMagick to perform this task? and why thanks in advanced

The Gimp does support PSD files, but it has real trouble with the layer effects that CS introduced. Also, the Gimp cannot natively handle CMYK images. Ash www.ashleysheridan.co.uk

      And off the top of my head, I don't think it supports 24bit images either, which can be another killer if you want to handle images from CS.

    I thought 24-bit meant CMYK; 8 bits each for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and

Black. I know the Gimp can handle PNG graphics which are 24-bit though; Red, Green, Blue and an Alpha channel. Ash www.ashleysheridan.co.uk My apologies, what I was thinking of was... "GIMP features support for 8-bit per-channel images, compared to Photoshop's support for 8, 16, and 32-bit per-channel images." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GIMP#Comparison_and_compatibility_with_Adobe_Photoshop
