Anybody interested in working on a PEAR module to interface PHP with something like ImageMagick directly? I would love to see it. Maybe if I am unemployed long enough soon I can work on it myself. Not that I really want that to happen... I think that might be the best solution for PHP's lack of image functionality though... Wes
Someone seems to have started this, although I'm not sure why he's not going more object-based. http://pear.php.net/manual/en/packages.imagick.php I would prefer something like $i = new Imagick(); $i->read("file"); instead of $i= imagick_create(); imagick_read($i,"file"); Also, it's 'experimental' so might not have 100% of what you're looking for yet.
