Author Getting image as GIF

Hi all!

I am new to images, and I work with a list of files - which for other
reasons is a list of gif files (I test for $file.gif).

I have found imagecreatefromgif and getimagesize which does pretty
much what I need.

Though, can I convert other images to GIF?

I took a look and did not find that much... something like save image
as... gif?

WBR & good night

Down load 'Imagemagick' and run it thought 'convert'.

Several possibilities.
With the standard bundled GD, you could use the imagecreatefrom*()
functions (or imagecreatefromstring()), and the use imagegif() to save
them again.
