=item *

B<I<"Thumbnail width (%d) is too small for an info text">>

C<max> argument to C<create> is too small to fit information.
Either disable C<info> parameter or increase C<max> value.

=back

=head1 EXAMPLES

You can reverse the strip and info colors and then add a frame
to the thumbnail to create a picture frame effect:

    my $thumb = GD::Thumbnail->new(
      strip_color => [255, 255, 255],
      info_color  => [  0,   0,   0],
      square      => 1,
      frame       => 1,
    );
    my $raw = $thumb->create('test.jpg', 100, 2);

If you have a set of images with the same dimensions, 
you may use a percentage instead of a constant value:

    my $raw = $thumb->create('test.jpg', '10%', 2);

Resulting thumbnail will be 90% smaller (x-y dimensions)
than the original image.

=head1 CAVEATS

Supported image types are limited with GD types, which include
C<png>, C<jpeg> and C<gif> and some others. See L<GD> for more information.
Usage of any other image type will be resulted with a fatal
error.
