-DESCRIPTION
+gd is a graphics library. It allows your code to quickly draw images
+complete with lines, arcs, text, multiple colors, cut and paste from
+other images, and flood fills, and write out the result as a PNG, GIF
+or JPEG file. This is particularly useful in World Wide Web applications,
+where PNG, GIF and JPEG are three of the formats accepted for inline
+images by most browsers.

-	It is not necessary or desirable for gd to become a kitchen-sink
-	graphics package, but version 1.7.3 incorporates most of the commonly
-	requested features for an 8-bit 2D package. Support for truecolor
-	images, JPEG and truecolor PNG is planned for version 2.0.

+gd does  not provide for every possible desirable graphics operation,
+but version 2.0 does include most frequently requested features,
+including both truecolor and palette images, resampling (smooth
+resizing of truecolor images) and so forth.
