>Description:
http://www.boutell.com/gd/ -
The gd library has been removed from circulation. We may, at some
future date, make a new version available that either (a) does not
contain any GIF-related code or (b) is offered only to parties holding
a license from Unisys to use the LZW compression algorithm.
Please do not send email asking for the gd library. We cannot send it to you. Thank you for your understanding.
