Heroku does not support GD setup for jpg. Because of this I am not able to create collage out of profile pics, which are only in jpg format. I am having the same issue as the below link.

How do I resolve this issue?
My alternative was to use imagick.so extension instead. See my reply @stackoverflow here for instruction how to get this extension up and running quickly. Let me know if this works (the few basic functions I tried are ok).
The official buildpack from Heroku doesn't list PHP. Strange.
Heroku does support ImageMagick. I ran in to the GD/JPG problem hosting a WordPress site, but it was easily fixed by installing the imagemagick-engine plugin. Using it from the command line works with the path /usr/bin . The PHP module is not installed.
