Edit: A free service would be cool too :)

This has been asked and mentioned, although I'm not sure ever answered, but...

Is there a Linux/Windows binary package (or even better as a PHP class or similar) which will take a full HTML page and generate a thumbnail or specified size?

I am in need of something like this, I know they exist I've looked into them before, but cannot for the life of me find anything relevant despite my searching... :(

There are many pay sites that do it.

Edit: Free? Ehh. :?

Is a picture is worth 1000 words. Is a video worth a million?
Well... if it has 1000 frames, then yes :wink:

P.S I think the first word should be "If", and not "Is"

Haha...thanks Oren. :)

back on topic: Yes free is the key as it's likely to be used in an open source project. I am sure there was a project on sourceforge that did that, but of course I can't find ^@#^ all :P
