looking for...

[Mister-Y]

I'm looking for a host that will provide me with the following:

OS: Unix or Windows

Webserver: Apache or IIS (Windows) with PHP4, MySQL, Gdlib (GIF/PNG) m/FreeType, ImageMagick

at least 50 Mb and at least 1 Gb / month

I know i probably won't find this for free, but if you know one ( banners are not a problem ) please tell me...
If you know a cheap host that will offer this, post it here too :-)

thanks

What are FreeType and ImageMagick?
Never seen those supported on a host before.
You could try http://www.tripod.co.uk though I don't know what os they are running on, and don't think they support FreeType, ImageMagick, and Gdlib.

ImageMagickTM is a robust collection of tools and libraries offered under a usage license to read, write, and manipulate an image in many image formats (over 87 major formats) including popular formats like TIFF, JPEG, PNG, PDF, PhotoCD, and GIF. With ImageMagick you can create images dynamically, making it suitable for Web applications. You can also resize, rotate, sharpen, color reduce, or add special effects to an image and save your completed work in the same or differing image format. Image processing operations are available from the command line, as well as through C, C++, Perl, or Java programming interfaces.
Finally you have access to the various image manipulation methods directly from the most popular application development environment: Perl , C++ , C , Python, or Java .

FreeType 2 is a software font engine that is designed to be small, efficient, highly customizable and portable while capable of producing high-quality output (glyph images). It can be used in graphics libraries, display servers, font conversion tools, text image generation tools, and many other products as well..
Note that FreeType 2 is a font service and doesn't provide APIs to perform higher-level features, like text layout or graphics processing (e.g. colored text rendering, "hollowing", etc..). However, it greatly simplifies these tasks by providing a simple, easy to use and uniform interface to access the content of font files.

No free host will install those perl modules for you... most paid hosts would if you aks though.
