Ok, thanks people, I'll look closer into GD. I've used it before for graphs but I didn't know it was what I was looking for. The thing that was really making me angry about Image/PerlMagick was that before I installed Perl 5.6 for win32 it installed easily and worked perfectly... this time I had to struggle to get everything installed, and when I tried to use certain functions(read/write) I got the windows error "perl.exe application error: the instruction at "0x2800193b" referenced memory at "0xabacadb5". The memory could not be "read". I will look further into GD. Also, I noticed www.wizards.dupont.com has down for quite a while now...

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.
