While PPM::Repositories is a lovely module, it isn't really what the fellow was asking.
The short answer is, yes the GD Graphics Library can be installed and compiled on Windows. However, the distribution comes with source only, thus you will need a C compiler to make it work for you. To the best of my knowledge there aren't any binary repositories, although with luck one of the monks will know of one. If you require PNG or JPEG image support you'll need to install a couple of extra libraries. See the README in GD.pm for more links and information.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
