Yes, it supports the php_gd2.dll extension. *Whoops! Doublepost* Imagemagick. Means I need to rewrite the whole script? Euh... would you help me with that?

Yes. It supports the php_gd2.dll extension.

Hi there. Im new here and a bit desperate. I own a website with images (covers) and we use a script to resize the images to a smaller preview and an even smaller thumbnail. But something goes wrong. The resizes are ugly. I dont know what we did wrong and we can find the solution. So I thought to copy the script here and prey for help. When you want to see the resized images, visit www.vendettta.nl. You can see the ugly thumbs on the homepage but for the previews you must be registered. But the thumbs speak enough. This is the script we used: [code] // // Start session management // $userdata = session_pagestart($user_ip, PAGE_INDEX); init_userprefs($userdata); // // End session management // include("class_functions.php");     $dbh2 = mysql_connect("localhost", "vendettta2", "uadmdcku") or die ('I cannot connect to the database because: ' . mysql_error());     mysql_select_db("vendettta_vendettta", $dbh2);      if($userdata["session_logged_in"]) {          if(isset($_POST["upload"]))     {                  if(strtolower(substr($_POST['naam'], 0, 3)) == "the")         {             $naamcover = substr($_POST['naam'], 4) . ", The";                      }         else         {             $naamcover = $_POST['naam'];         }                 //bestand uploaden             $uploaddir =  "uploads/origineel/";                 $pathinfo = pathinfo('/path/to/picture.jpeg');                 $extensie = $pathinfo['extension'];                 $_filename = md5(preg_replace("#^(.*)\.[A-Za-z\.]+$#", "\\1", basename($_FILES['upfile']['name'])));                                                                    $filename= $_filename . "." .$extensie;                                           $uploadfile = $uploaddir . $filename;                 while(file_exists($uploadfile))                 {                     $filename= $_filename . $i ."." .$extensie;                     $uploadfile = $uploaddir . $filename;                     $i = $i+1;                                      }                 if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['upfile']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)){                     chmod($uploadfile, 0644);                                          }else{                     print("File upload failure<br>");                     }                                                   // zoek afmetingen                                      list($width, $height) = getimagesize($uploadfile);                                  $i = 2;                                  while (check_covername($naamcover) == 1) {                     if($i>2)                     {                         $naamcover    = substr($naamcover, 0, -3) .
