This is accomplished by a system() or exec() call and can be expensive but I've found it works 100% of the time no matter what's thrown at it. But, this is limited to a UNIX environment and assumes the vB installation has execute permission to the program convert.

Maybe a look into the ImageMagick PHP extension imagick might be worth looking at to see if this problem goes away then. But then this hack ends up with a "requirements" list.

This hack works great on 3.0.1 perfect. But on my board I also have a problem with members putting too many images in their sigs as well. I've made a very small modification to the original source that limits the total number of images and attached it for others.

Can you please tell us which code was changed from the original hack so we can just upgrade what we already have?
