GD2 does not have support for gifs. Due to stupid software patents.
So if you have GD2 installed use jpg's or png's for your images. Not gifs.
if you still have GD version 1 installed on your box, you can use gifs. (I recommend GD2 though, the quality of JPG's is much better).

Thank you, but I can't personally do that, as my shop depends on trasparencies to look right. There's some effects in my template that dynamically change background colors.
My GD 2 actually works fine with GIF.
I need a solution with good image quality and transparency. I tried outputing to PNG in Photoshop, but to my dismay, the image quality isn't nearly as good... you'd think it'd be the same as GIF, but it's not.
Both black background GIFs and inferior looking PNGs are neither a solution.
It's been about 2 months now. If this won't work, then i'm going to forget about it.
That said, this is an excellent solution and mod for those who
can use jpgs (which is likely to be the bulk of 'em)
