PHP & Images [Resize, Crop, Save]


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hey! Well I have a little dilema, hoping I could find some guidance.

I have a CMS and on the actual website I am building I have a nice little slideshow script that runs through all the images in a certain directory. The dimensions of the slideshow are 900x250. (Obviously not all images come in this size straight from the camera so I need a little resize crop and save script to do this for the user)

Did you know?Explore Trending and Topic pages for more stories like this.
I would like the 'admin' to be able to upload an image (or more than one at the same time, if it's not much more hard work) and then PHP simply takes over from there. At which point the images would be resized to 900px in width (keeping the aspect ratio) and then cropped to take the middle 250px out. then this image is saved in "images/slideshow" as a 900x250 pixel image? The format it is saved in isn't that much of a problem.

Thanks a lot in advance! Any guidance is appreciated!

For example, this image:

Would become:
