Above site wrote:
"To enable GD-support configure PHP --with-gd[=DIR], where DIR is the GD
base install directory. To use the recommended bundled version of the GD
library (which was first bundled in PHP 4.3.0), use the configure option
- --with-gd. GD library requires libpng and libjpeg to compile."

but also see:

"Note:  Since PHP 4.3 there is a bundled version of the GD lib. This
bundled version has some additional features like alpha blending, and
should be used in preference to the external library since its codebase
is better maintained and more stable."
