I've built my own local server (MiniServer) for running and testing sites on my own machine.

I am including a 4Images or Gallery module in one. 4ImaGES requires server side graphic tools, either one of the following two:

GD Graphics Site

IMAGEMAGICK

I just like to get some recommendations on each if possible to decide, which is probably the better tool. ALso, if there are any possible problems installing on a local server setup.

I've determined the Imagemagick is the better choice because the GD doesn't support GIFs. Heck, I can't build anything w/o GIFs.

I'll just have to deal with any ImageMagick issues...LOL

It might help if someone could share where to best install the Imagemagick for best use on the local server (miniserver).

Any suggestions are comments would be appreciated
