I have a problem with the uploading function. I can add .jpg's and serendepity resizes them, no problem. But when I try to upload a .gif, it doesn't resize it, and doesn't displays it in the media library neither. (But it DOES upload it.)

Also it's not possible to upload images from some www-adres (from client diskdrive it's no problem). It does upload something, but that "something" is an empty (white) image.

Any idea what can causes this problem? I have the "Use Imagemagick" boolean turned off.

You most likely don't have gif write or png write compiled into your PHP installation

And it seems like you have PHPs allow_url_open set to FALSE. Serendipity 0.8 allows to download HTTP images using the PEAR class which will work despite that PHP setting. You might want to try that out...

maybe your GD version is too OLD, please upgrade it to 2.0.28 or later.
