nop the main reason is to decrease a file size..I want to use images a a profile pictures for users.. so if files are each 40 KB !! I think this is a problem ..so I want to keep the original + the thumbnail

the tutorial that I've read abt image resizing suppose that image exist in a path ex: $file='\picutre.jpg' ; however .. I've saved my images into a database ... so I want to get the image from the db then resize it save it back in a new record in my DB with the new size ... ex: "select imagedata from ...." .. $imagedata= image data from DB... so I want to resize my picture but the variable that I've is the image binary and not the path .. so how can I resize it ? and how can I get the new filesize , and filetype?
