if the output of rpm -q --all | grep php is  (for instance)

php
php-cli
php-gd
php-mysql

you should yum install this packages:

php53
php53-cli
php53-gd
php53-mysql

I can answer your question: it is not included in php53 package; you have to
install php53-gd

> Oh yes...if there is a problem with php35, are there any problems in

If everithing fails, just remove the php53 packages, yum install the php
packages you removed and restore /etc/php.ini
