Great question,
I've been playing with image manipulation tools in CF for years now... Building gallery applications is my thing. If you are willing and able to buy and install a CFX tag I would recommend ImageFlare or Image CR (Depending on the features you need). Both are made by Efflare http://www.efflare.com Nothing I've found works better. It has a ton of features and produces the highest quality jpgs of anything, and I've tied just about all of them (ImageMagik, ImageCFC, Alagad's Image CFC and even one I can't mention due to a current NDA). Nothing works better. -- Alan Rother Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion MX 7 Developer Manager, AZCFUG.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 The most significant release in over 10 years.
