A caveat about GD. I've been using it because my web host will not support Image::Magick. GD does everything very well, but the quality of the optimization is dicey at best. Images can look pretty chunky, regardless of how you set the params, as compared to something like a Photoshop optimization. I too would be interested in options—just wish I::M didn't have the overhead and it was more "hostable." FWIW
