Prerequisites¶

This script is quite easy-going. PHP 4.1 is already sufficient, which is provided by almost all web hosts. Register globals may be enabled or disabled. The script is PHP 5 compliant.

For thumbnail generation, either GD2, ImageMagick or GD is required. GD is not recommended though, and should only be used as a last resort, because the quality of the thumbnail images will be really poor. If you use ImageMagick, make sure PHP SafeMode is turned off.

This script is entirely file-based, and does not involve any database programming.
