PHPCad Drawing Program is a CAD/painting program written in PHP. The user requires no detailed drawing skill.

All objects are functions placed on the screen by defining one or two points with parameters for the object. Produces .png-.jpg-.gif(animated)-.mpg-.pov pictures.

This program is mainly used off the web as an application to design 2D and 3D stuff. As is, it can design 3D houses very well. Also it has a movie mode to make .mngs, animated .gifs, and .mpgs.

Every time you place an object using phpcad it is automatically saved and automatically layered. The object contains a start point, possibly a secondary point, and attributes such as time, color, curvature, length, end location, or shape. The attributes depend on the function.

PovRay (persistence of Vision) is an impressive free ray tracer for 3D graphics. Lets say you want to draw a wall in 3-D, you can do this by drawing a 2-D wall. Then make a p.pov. Then run ./p on the command line in the phpcad directory to generate the picture.

You can use the program to make movies (mainly credits), simple animations, 3-D drawings, cad drawings, online cad programs, graphs, charts, image maps, and web and advertising graphics. It can be used as a precursor to other program like gimp, that can be used to fill areas with color textures.

Ultimately, pictures will be use as stamps to be put in any position on the picture. The program is SCALABLE! You can work on a picture in 850x1100, and can resize the picture to 5500 x 6600 for clearer printing or scale the same picture down for icons. If the objects used are scalable.

If you run this program on a server be careful of the server CPU usage since you are generating these images. The program was tested under under Konqueror, Mozilla, and Explorer (remotely), but only on apache/linux server.

A 5 kilobyte 640x480 .png is a common .png is a common picture size genegram!
