Try this: [code] <?php function makethumb($path,$newwidth,$newpath) { $orgpicture = imagecreatefromjpeg($path); $orgwidth = imagesx($orgpicture); //finds the width of original pix $orgheight = imagesy($orgpicture); //and height $ratio = $orgheight / $orgwidth; //ratio $thumbwidth = $newwidth; //set width $thumbheight = $thumbwidth * $ratio; //create height $thumb = imagecreatetruecolor($thumbwidth, $thumbheight); //create image there the thumb will be located imagecopyresampled($thumb, $orgpicture, 0, 0, 0, 0, $thumbwidth, $thumbheight, $orgwidth, $orgheight); //copy the old pix, resize, and drop it in the image we just made imagejpeg($thumb, $newpath, 100); //save thumb with max quality (100); } makethumb('the/org/path/pix.jpg',100,'the/new/path/pix.jpg'); makethumb('the/org/path/pix.jpg',200,'the/other/new/path/pix.jpg'); ?>[/code] Not testet... I don't understand the Q about MySQL, but you should be able to figure that out from here, otherwise try again!
