Might also be worth breaking your program up into a couple of steps that may
help out with your debugging. As an example, first put a real graphic file in
the directory to see if you can move it with your PHP code. Once you have the
move functioning correctly, then build in the portion related to the temporary
gif creation process. Sometimes if you are trying to do many things at one time,
there errors aren't very clear in pointing out the problem.
