<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>You have to use the very latest version of timthumb
(to be safe) to be included with the theme AND it has to be used in a way
that the internal core scripts would not manage.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>So, if you can use the internal image functions,
use them. If they can't handle what you want to use, timthumb is
acceptable but only in that reference.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Here is a recount of some pro's and cons with using
internal workings.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>In my opinion you should try to develope your theme
without it and use core code, but if utterly absolutely necessary.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>If your use of timthumb can be done by using
internal core functions then you will be requested to not have it and use the
proper internal coding.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>If you use an older version of timthumb it will
definately be declined, older versions have a couple of backdoors that are not
allowed.</FONT></DIV>
