Anyone know of a script that will auto thumbnail images on the fly? Im not looking for a full on gallery script by the way just an add on to use on a web page with half a dozen images or so.
I have used some scripts in OSCommerce which do exactly this - they resize the image so it is physically smaller but they also resample it so the image is MUCH smaller in "weight" (anything down to 10% of the original file size although the quality of the output looks shit lol).
Importantly, though, you only have to upload one image and it doesnt actually create a physical thumbnail image in your images directory - it just does some jiggery pokery in the background and hey presto bobs your uncle and all that!
