AutoThumbNailer Need Help

[GoKeR]

Hi to all,
First of all After 1 try I have set 4images up successfully.
I like this program However I couldnt solve my auto-thumbnailer problem.

>Imagemagick --> Their Site is offline

>GD --> I download the program. I read the informations.  It told that I should setup it. However I am using windows and uploading to Linux Server. For setting up it I need telnet access Which I haven't.  I also tried to upload them with ftp. After that I choose it from admin settings. But It didnt work. Is there anyway to run gd for me? as auto-thumbnailer ?  :

>NetPBM --> I used Netpbm with another program. However They were ready for use for that program. I download the full NetPbm. But I think I should setup too Which I couldn't. I also upload them and configure in settings However it isnt working either    Is there anyway to run netpbm for me?

Please help me about this problem. I want to use this program for Liv Tyler Public Photo Archieve Site however I dont want to create over 2500 thumbnails with my hand

Well I didnt know that I could use gallery's netpbm files for 4images. WHatever I upload netpbm binaries and I can see Autothumbnailer page in the end:)

However pictures which I upload from main page hasnt still got thumbnails. Moreover When I go to autothumbnailer page in admin area then click check thumbnails button I got

Warning: SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 10015 is not allowed to access ./../data/media/1/bridge.jpg owned by uid 48 in /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/liv-tyler.biz/httpdocs/test/admin/thumbnailer.php on line 115

that error. If my server could change php safe mode to off locally Will these problems automatically solve?

Moreover Has anybody know how can I do php safe mode off locally for one domain in plesk if  I had root access. Thanks.

@GoKeR:
You can turn safe_mode off in your php.ini.

@legolasbloom:
Yes, you need, GD, ImageMagick or NetPBM. Most hosts have GD already installed. Just try it. Choose "GD" in your settings and try the Auto-Thumbnailer. You will see a error mesage if GD is not installed.

ok GD works for me but the quality is really bad. Is there any way to fix that?

[Jan]

If you have GD version 2 or higher set

Code: [Select]

define('CONVERT_IS_GD2', 0);
to

Code: [Select]

define('CONVERT_IS_GD2', 1);in includes/constants.php
