Nice job, for your one of your earliest Perl scripts!
I especially commend you for using GD.pm as I have been learning it in detail lately, and enjoy seeing other code utilizing this great module.
The only changes/modifications I would make if you felt like doing them, would have to just be:
- Converting the Spanish text to English, (for easier readability for English-speaking persons. Or perhaps, the english equivilents maybe?) :)
- Creating a more-detailed error message (at the end of the script - which is: else { print "Error :( "; } to let the user know what really went wrong, or what the user needs to do different.
- Use -w otherwise known as warnings simply so you can check to make sure that everything is in good shape - I did check to make sure that it was fine, and it was in this scripts' case, but make sure to add this in future scripts. :)
Otherwise, great job on your script! Keep up the great work, shadox!

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
