Marco Zinn	Friday 12 November 2004 2:23:58 am Hi, yes, Luke is right. ezPublish uses an "Image Subsystem" to handle images (resize them to the sizes, that you want for your site). It can use the GD library, which is part of PHP, and/or can use the external Programm ImageMagick. If you don't have Imagemagick or can't install it, you can start with "GD only", which should work fine for starting. Marco http://www.hyperroad-design.com
