PHP Smart Image Resizer Script

Smart image resizer is a PHP script which makes it very easy to resize & crop images. And, this is done without touching the original image.

The width & height of the image to be resized is mentioned in the tag like:
<img src="/image.php/coffee.jpg?width=200&height=200ℑ=//uploads/coffee.jpg" alt="Coffee" />
and image is resized via the GD library.
Newly created image is stored in a cache directory & won’t be re-created until new dimensions are mentioned to improve the system performance.
Cropping an image also warks the same way. Simply mention the crop ratio & that’s all.
Smart Image Resizer supports JPG, GIF & PNG images and requires PHP 5.1.0+ to run.

Requirements: PHP 5.1.0+, GD library
Compatibility: JPG, GIF, PNG

You can add images, links, edit the HTML of a page and copy a page to use it as a template for a new page.
It requires PHP 4.3+ to run & no databases required.
