I've spent a long time looking for an asset management system and I finally came across ResourceSpace which is pretty much what I've been looking for except for one detail. http://www.montala.net/resourcespace.php Currently RS is using the GD library for generating thumbnail which means that there isn't support for tif and eps images which is pretty much essential for my needs. I read the RS google group group where the original coder indicates that it wouldn't be that hard to swap the GD library for ImageMagick but since I'm not a coder, it's way beyond my abilities. http://groups.google.com/group/resourcespace/browse_thread/thread/3a58a7c23ee6f813/eee1f39a5ab7df6b#eee1f39a5ab7df6b I'd like to have an opinion on how much work it would be and what a realistic budget would be if I posted it as a project on getafreelancer.com?
Overall it shouldn't be too difficult indeed. If you have imagemagick installed, and PHP safemode is turned off, you could -before processing- convert TIFF and EPS images to JPG images or so. If you work that way, its won't cost you very much, I'ld do it for $20. If the coder is going to recode the full file, you can expect a price up to $100, or even more, however I don't think it will be need to recode it completely.
Great, if it's that straightforward I'm definitly interested in getting it done ImageMagick is already installed, just have to check with my host if PHP safemode is off or not
