GD Upgrades?

[Trauma]

Ok my host just upgraded to the new version of GD i was woundering if i have to reinstall coppermine for it to reconize the new version of GD?

no need to re-install, just go to coppermine config and change "Method for resizing images" to GD2.

I did that when i batch add files it shows a gif logo not the actual picture and GD said that they now support gif files again. So ethier my host didnt install it or i gotta do something else.

Version 1.3.2 and earlier cannot upload gif files when gd is used, even if it has been upgraded.  There has been plenty of posts on how to overcome that(with version 1.3.2, not 1.2x), and a mod posted as well I beleive.

Search for uploading gif files.

Version 1.4(currently in alpha testing) can upload gifs as normal when the server supports it.
