It is available in your own language. ColdFusion is really java, and there has been code posted in java to do image manipulation. Anything that could be done in java could be done in ColdFusion. If you need something that performs better, then you go pay for it. ColdFusion can't possibly include everything.

This is related to my original post about image manipulation, but is NOT asking about a specific program. My question is that since SO MANY people look for image manipulation in their programming language, why don't more developers add this feature into their language. Even PHP doesn't have this stuff natively (that I know of) but does allow you to add it in via extra libraries. So consider this an open letter to Macromedia/Adobe. Why isn't something which is so desired by so many people added into your language? I could go and pay $75 for an excellent codebase (Alagad's Image Component) but doesn't it make sense to include this into the language itself? I just don't understand it. Can anyone enlighten me on this? <!----------------//------ andy matthews web developer ICGLink, Inc.
