A very very very brief search on Boutell's site didn't turn up TIFF either, so I'm guessing it's just not in GD at all. One option might be to convert to JPEG using ImageMagik (aka convert). At that point, depending on your application, you might as well have ImageMagik scale it too. You'll need to use http://php.net/exec and maybe mess around with shell permissions and paths a bit. GD is great, but for re-sizing your uploaded images, it might be better to write a shell script in some kind of cron job to resize/move images using ImageMagik -- If you have to pop out to a shell (which is what exec does, essentially) you might as well just start (and stay) in the shell anyway. YMMV The last paragraph really only applies if performance is a significant factor in your upload routine. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
