You need to use the GD library:
http://de2.php.net/manual/en/function.i ... esized.php
has the following example
Code: Select all
<?php
// File and new size
$filename = 'test.jpg';
$percent = 0.5;
// Content type
header('Content-type: image/jpeg');
// Get new sizes
list($width, $height) = getimagesize($filename);
$newwidth = $width * $percent;
$newheight = $height * $percent;
// Load
$thumb = imagecreate($newwidth, $newheight);
$source = imagecreatefromjpeg($filename);
// Resize
imagecopyresized($thumb, $source, 0, 0, 0, 0, $newwidth, $newheight, $width, $height);
// Output
imagejpeg($thumb);
?>
This could be used as a starting point.

Code: Select all
$imgfile = '2.jpg';
Header("Content-type: image/".$_GETї"type"]);
switch($_GETї"type"]){
default:
$function_image_create = "ImageCreateFromJpeg";
$function_image_new = "ImageJpeg";
break;
case "jpg":
$function_image_create = "ImageCreateFromJpeg";
$function_image_new = "ImageJpeg";
case "jpeg":
$function_image_create = "ImageCreateFromJpeg";
$function_image_new = "ImageJpeg";
break;
case "png":
$function_image_create = "ImageCreateFromPng";
$function_image_new = "ImagePNG";
break;
case "gif":
$function_image_create = "ImageCreateFromGif";
$function_image_new = "ImagePNG";
break;
}
list($width, $height) = getimagesize($imgfile);
// the new weight of the thumb
$newheight = 80;
// Proportion is maintained
$newwidth = (int) (($width*80)/$height);
$thumb = ImageCreateTrueColor($newwidth,$newheight);
$source = @function_image_create($imgfile);
ImageCopyResized($thumb, $source, 0, 0, 0, 0, $newwidth, $newheight, $width, $height);
@$function_image_new($thumb);
By using the above code :
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imagecreatetruecolor() in c:\apache\htdocs\images\resize.php on line 69
wot could be the problem !

itsmani, read your private messages.
there are several Code Snippets that involve thumbnail generation.
