The GD2 extension is included, but disabled by default.

You can configure PHP to load the GD2 extension by left-clicking on the WAMP system tray icon, go to PHP Extensions > Add Extension ... enter "php_gd2.dll" and hit return, Apache will restart and you'll have GD functions available!

open up your php.ini file, and find this line:

;extension=php_gd2.dll

change it to

extension=php_gd2.dll

save the file and restart apache for the new settings to take effect.

Under Windows and php 5.1.2 there is a bug with the GD DLL: install the version of the DLL provided with php 5.1.0 or older and test. For me that functioned.

also note if you are trying to use imagemajic, it does not work on windows.
