    First, thank you, your soft is really great
    But it's really slow...
    I wonder if it is possible to install convert (ImageMagick) if my site is host at my ISP server ?
    As they give me a "html-public" directory, they also give me a "cgi-bin" directory and a ssh (but very restricted) access.
    Does someone know how to do ? is there something to change in my local php.ini to tell him where convert is ?

    As I'm a newbie :-( thanks you for your help

      you could try this:
      install imagemagick on your local machine

      then upload the whole folder to your webserver

      find out the absolute path to your website directory
      (look at http://yourserver.com/linpha/info.php on the section SCRIPT_FILENAME)
      copy this path to the path-setting in linpha (in the table linpha_config it is the row which option_name is "convert_path"

      maybe it works, maybe not
      i think it depends which OS you are using
      the OS of your local machine should be the same as your webserver

      another possibility:
      contact your ISP and ask them if they install imagemagick for you!

      thanks for your try fanghern but it didn't success.
      The scipt convert desn't seem to work on ssh too (it miss some environnment variable and even when i fixe this temporaly, it could not load shared object)
      sniffff :-(

      I will ask my ISP if they could install ImageMagick
