      Hi; thank you
      it is very good for me because i was looking for something like this in last days grin grin

      i test it on 0.9.6.1, it works well but i found out that it shows nothing with gif images. it is only for png images?

      and it is good as a converter script so adding delete feature to it can be useful. it means when snippet get a image, create a shadowed(_sorry for my English grin_) and show it. i maybe like to delete original image too.
      it can be good feature .

      good luck

        Hi,

        well I think there are lots of things to do. My script is newborn and is too much "stiff" yet - I am talking about the output in particular.
        A delete feature could be good, for old (no more used) output images, most of all. And an upload interface would be useful too.
        But I don’t want to build a picture manager with shadow features. I just wanted a simple shadows dropper. Just a modx-friendly version of the Collington’s dropshadow php script I found on the internet. If you are looking for a great picture manager with shadow features maybe MaxiGallery will work.
        I hope one day someone will build a picture manager which uses KBshadows inside, just for shadows and resize needs.

        Gif’s? I really didn’t try! Maybe the script doesn’t work with gif images! A good thing would be to insert an hidden gif-to-png converter inside the script. I remember there’s something interesting inside the maxigallery.class.inc.php - I’ll check.

        Thank you for using KBshadows. Thank you for making it smarter. Thank you for calling it inside your snippets!

          This one converts gif too, using some code from maxigallery.class.php. Thanks for testing!!
          Attached kbshadows.zip - this is not an official release yet, but seems to work.
