hi,

shall we say you want to creae a banner, a button, and other images
for your site. some create images on the fly through php using gd
library. is this more advisable or more efficient compared to creating
an image file (.jpg) shall we say using photoshop?


Every time you unlock a door, do you get a new key made? If the lock doesn't change, of course you don't. But if the lock changed every time, you would have to.

If the image is static, then just generate it once and save it. But if the image is dynamic, then you need to generate it every time.

Most of the dynamic creation I've seen are things like CAPTCHA, graphs dependent on changing data, etc.
