Android07 Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 Hi I have a function that will create thumbnails of images but it requires the GD library. My new host doesn't have this and after contacting them there is no way to get it installed. Is there any other way of creating thumbnails that doesn't require the GD library? I would prefer a solution in PHP but if this is not possible then could it be done any other way? Thanks.

GingerRobot Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 You can always specify a height and a width of the image when you output it. Wouldn't reduce the file size of the image in the way that creating a thumbnail would, but if the images aren't too big anyway then its an option.

Android07 Posted July 6, 2007 Author Share Posted July 6, 2007 Changing hosts isn't really an option. I have been setting the size with css but I was hoping to reduce the loading times by having thumbnails. If it isn't possible then I'll leave it as it is.
