Well, I hope I did lose anyone talking about X-Cart last night....

Anyway, I thought if Carl would. (I know Chris is kind of interested) Carl 
has been working with GD2 alot lately, if he would like to talk about the 
things he has been using GD2 for. resizing and resampling images, cropping 
and so on...


Mike
