Re: Using Images in PHP]

Good Morning praveen,

you will need both Imagick
http://www.imagemagick.org/script/api.php#php (points to the 
documentation about how to use Imagick with PHP)

and the PEAR extension class (PECL):
http://pecl.php.net/package/imagick

There is an alternative to Imagick already shipping with PHP called GD:
http://de2.php.net/manual/de/book.image.php
http://de2.php.net/manual/de/function.imagecopyresized.php#88533 
(example how to resize images)

Installation is as easy as this:
-> open up php.ini
-> uncomment the following ";extension=php_gd2.dll" (remove the 
semicolon before "extension=..")
-> restart Apache

Creating thumbnails is a bit more complicated than with Imagick, but 
feel free to use the following class:

http://gist.github.com/129666

It's not complete yet because I wrote it about 1 hour ago, but I hope 
I'll find some time to complete it and it already resizes pictures in 
PNG and GIF format, JPGs look a bit crappy. It'll hopefully help you 
figure out how to resize images with GD.

Best regards,

Sascha
