Hello Rob,
What is your local environment? (OS, PHP version, etc.) If you're running windows, most likely all you will have to do is change your php.ini.
The OS used is Windows XP.
Open your php.ini file, set your extension_dir variable to where the extensions directory is. If you installed php in c:\php, then the directory is c:\php\extensions.
The gd library is bundled with the .zip package for Windows. If you downloaded the .exe (binary installer), you may be missing some extensions. Download the .zip file for Windows, uncompress it, and then copy all the files from the extensions directory into your local php install folder.
Once you've done that, uncomment remove the ; from the line in php.ini that reads ;extension=gd.dll ( I think that's what its called, may also be gd2.dll ). Save php.ini, restart your web server, and then view the output from phpinfo();
Should see the gd extension enabled :)
