Bug fixes:

• samples/gifscale.pl sourced the base value for gif_top from gif_left. Thanks to Eleneldil G. Arilou for pointing this out.
• link[http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30508|t/t82inline.t no longer loads B at runtime, to work around a bug in some 5.005_0[45] installations.]
• work around Module::Depends::Intrusive bug #21229
• the hardinvert filter no-longer inverts the alpha channel.
• the hardinvert filter now supports large samples

Imager 0.61_02 - 28 November 2007

• major TIFF support re-work
• added a C level image interface for accessing samples from 1-32 bits, exposed this at the perl level in getsamples()
• the conv filter now works at floating point precision for high bit images
• added is_bilevel method to test whether an image should be written as a bilevel image if the image format supports it.
• added -log-stderr as an Imager import list option
• added some important types to Imager::APIRef
• added test_image_double() to Imager::Test

Bug fixes:

• Imager::Fountain couldn't read GIMP gradient files with 10 or more segments
• the scale() method with qtype mixing now handles images with an alpha channel correctly.
• fixed a broken link from the "animated GIF" entry in the concept index. Thanks to Slaven Rezic.
• on some perl's the infix expression parser test would fail due to actions in the grammar returning false. Made sure all actions return a true value. Thanks to Richard Fairhurst for spending a lot of time in tracking down this problem.
