making a photo album

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
May 05.2005

I’m at it again guys! New project, i’m making a photo album! I think i have almost everything figured out, but what I need is a good method to take an image that is on the server and create another, simpler image of it that is scaled down.

I tried just going

[code]<img src=”” width=”50″ height=”50″>[/code]

but image still takes some time to load, thus defeating the purpose of creating a thumbnail at all.

not sure if php is what i need for this one… I dunno, what do u guys think? I’ve read a bnit about image maps, is this what i need?

@SpectreReturnsMay 05.2005 — Heres a script I wrote to create thumbnails. You'll need to fill in the missing variables.

[code=php]
 $img = ImageCreateTrueColor($site['p_width'],$site['p_height']);
switch($ext[1]) {
case "jpg":
$src = ImageCreateFromJPEG($location);
break;
case "jpeg":
$src = ImageCreateFromJPEG($location);
break;
case "png":
$src = ImageCreateFromPNG($location);
break;
case "gif":
$src = ImageCreateFromGIF($location);
break;
}
$size = GetImageSize($location);
ImageCopyResized($img,$src,0,0,0,0,$site['p_width'],$site['p_height'],$size[0],$size[1]);
ImagePNG($img,'images/photos/thumbs/'.$ext[0].'.png');
[/code]

Success!
