Require a PHP Image Resizer/Cropping Script

I am grabbing links to images and need to convert them on the fly to 72x108 to display on a website. The source images come from various resolutions, so cropping is required.

I know a moderate level of PHP s开发者_运维百科o I can probably make something work for my needs, but was hoping for something that could be called by a url request. EG: mysite.com/thumbnail.php?src=http://anothersite.com/image.jpg&w=72&h=108

That would be ideal, it needs to support jpg/png.

Thanks in advance!

Here is a really handy script for processing and uploading images that's been a top google result for forever. I used it years ago and it was really easy to implement. Looks like it was just updated a couple weeks ago too :)

This may be overkill, but if you check out the examples you can see there's a lot you can do with it. If you don't use it for this project, it might be worthwhile to try out for the next one.

just read the image from the url with file_get_contents or using curl and use the php gd library to resize and crop the image as per your needs.
