Good reseller hosts with Image Magick (as PHP module) enabled?

Hi: I'm having a tough time finding reputable reseller hosts that support Image Magick, not just as a command tool, but PHP module. So far the two hosts I've inquired, Site5 and Affordablehost.com, both only offer IM either as a command tool or Perl module, but not PHP. Any suggestions? I'm not looking for a VDS, since it would be overkill for the simple application I'm looking to use it for. Thanks,

Actually, I don't think there is ImageMagick as a PHP module. PHP uses GD for image processing.

I see it's still beta which is why no-one is really offering it. GD is still better...

Hmmm I thought Image Magick as a PHP module is fairly common in virtual hosts? Anyhow, with a script I'm using, it relies on ImageMagick, since IM supports some unique functions that GD doesnt.

Image Magick is a Perl module, not PHP, as far as I know. Most hosts should have that or be able to install it for you. --Tina
