iMagick offers all of the functionality of imageMagick, which is a substantially different subset than GD. iMagick is primarily geared toward modifying existing images. Resizing, converting formats, apply effects to, etc. It also works with a far larger set of base image formats.
Check out imagemagick itself, and then for access to that functionality in php, head out and grab iMagick.

You'll need to either use the gd functions, or my recommendation, get
the imagick module and use it. Both should do an excellent job. iMagick
is in PEAR.
How is PEAR making out? What makes it better than using the GD extension? I
will need to do image manipulation (much like the original question, I'll
have to make thumbnails of images on upload) and I want to know which is the
better option, in what circumstances, etc.
