PHP Developers Network

Hello to all friends.

First of all I am newcomer , not only in this forum but also in php.

Besides using GD library, I have heard a better equivalent (IMageMagick). Some one told me that its results are batter than gd library and has more features.

I tried to installed the PECL/PEAR extension on wamp 2.0 on windows XP and read all the resources on net but remain unable to install and get it working .

I am willing not to install ImageMagick Application on my system. since its not that worthy when i already have ADOBE PhotoShop. for gfx manipulation.

Can some body help me in insatlling pear extensions specifically (imagick), step by step.

Thanx in Advance.
