Symbiostock 1.3: Imagick no longer required

(1/1)

Symbiostock Official:
As per many requests from contributors, Symbiostock has now been released with GD support. GD is the built in PHP image manipulation library and Symbiostock can now work through both Imagick and GD.

GD is less powerful and accordingly Symbiostock will only work with JPEG images for sale if running without Imagick. This means no vectors, but is still great for photographers.

As well, image metadata reading can now also work without shell_exec access.

All this means that if you currently are with a web host that is more restrictive and/or does not provide these previously necessary built in functions, Symbiostock should be a lot more compatible with your current system.

As always, if you guys have any technical questions or support requests, post them here or in the Symbiostock forum.
