How to uload a BMP, GIFs?

I'm designing a Image Hosting. But now users can upload only gif, jpg, png. They suggest me my site should allow upload gifs and bmp. But as I now PHP don't have image functions for these images. Please help me the way to do it!

php (rather, the GD graphics extention) supports bmp files just fine.

list($width, $height, $type) = getimagesize("your_image_file");
if ($type == IMAGETYPE_WBMP || $TYPE == IMAGETYPE_BMP)
    echo 'you have a bitmap file';

PHP:

Full list of IMAGETYPE_??? codes here: http://us3.php.net/manual/en/ref.image.php

 

If you mean animated gif by 'gifs', then you can use a class that was programmed for that. Search google for it.

 

Just Try a copy() function once.

 

phpTumb can handle animated gifs and BMPs. Resizing, converting, etc...

 

Oh! Thanks,
