Script to Resize & Upload photos

[attenborough@gmail.com]

Hi, am hoping that someone may be able to help me. Im designing a small
website using PHP and MySQL. I would like to allow my visitors to
upload a photo via a form on it. Im worried that people will be trying
to upload 1mb+ images, so i am looking for a php script that will
resize that image down to a managable 50kb file (or there abouts) and
also give me a small thumbnail to use. Presumably then the script would
also delete the original 1mb+ photo from the server. Ive been searching
through google for an answer, but with not a great deal of luck. Thanks
in advance.

Re: Script to Resize & Upload photos

It is actually very easy if you have GD lib in your php package.

http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.imagecopyresized.php

or if you have imagemagick installed, you can use command "convert -resize
a.jpg b.jpg"

If you want to ask a question in more than one newsgroup please
crosspost (send it to all groups at once) rather than multipost.

You find my answer in alt.php.
