[Typo3] Macina banners and ImageMagick 5.4

[Erik Svendsen]

Hello tapio,

First, I can't answer your question in how prevent Macina Banners to use 
ImageMagick. But I can give you some others ideas to solve the problem. ImageMagick 
5.4+ is probably the worst version to use together with Typo3. It's much 
better to use the older 4 version (look at typo3.org), newer versions from 
6.1.x and up, or GraphicsMagick.

I have tested Macina Banners with both ImageMagick 6.1.x/6.2.x and GraphicsMagick, 
and haven't had any big problems with the images beiing ugly. Of course, 
I always make the bannerimages in the correct size for the banner.


WBR,
