    ITT Fined $100M For Illegal Exports

    So why didn't the air force bomb the 117 wreckage in Bosnia? Not true, France, the UK, and China have Hydrogen bombs as well. India/Pakistan/NK are fission only. Israel is probably hydrogen as well, and India could be ready to test an TN device soon. It's better to have an open...

    Is there any GOOD straight forward tutorial sites?

    Start with learning perl (llama book), when you get that figured out, move on up to the Perl Programming (Camel Book). Yes there are elements of humor in both and a bit of a history lesson but they help provide context as to why a computer/language does it one way when in your head it would be...

    Using imagemagick to on-the-fly resize

    PNG is a better format, 8 bits of alpha transparancy, 24-bit pallete (Gif can only have 256 colors per image), better compression algo (GZip). Now that a workaround for IE alpha transparancy is known, there's no reason to use gif unless you've got to support ancient browsers (Pre NS4/IE4)

    Using imagemagick to on-the-fly resize

    Yeah, when the unisys patents expired they added the RLE compression code back into the tree. GD could be made to make uncompressed gifs during the patent ban, but it was a hassle for no real benefit.

    Using imagemagick to on-the-fly resize
