look for some php photo-album software and review their source-code. I
worked it out by reading the php manual (image functions).

here's a function I wrote some time ago (for a photo album program of my
own). It tries to use a function called imageCopyResampled() but falls
back to imageCopyResized(). The newer function imageCopyResampled()
gives better quality but not all version of GD PHP modules have it.

You will have to modify this function as it was designed for my app. The
main param you are interested in is $intSize which represents the
maximum length of the longest side you want the thumbnail to be.

function createThumbnail($id,$idSrcImg,$intSize) {

$uriSrcDir = "../albums".$id."/";
$uriSrcImg = $uriSrcDir.$idSrcImg;
$uriThmImg = $uriSrcDir."_thumbs/".$idSrcImg;

$imgSrc=imagecreatefromjpeg($uriSrcImg);

$intSrcH = ImageSY($imgSrc);
$intSrcW = ImageSX($imgSrc);
if($intSrcH == $intSrcW) {
$intHeight = $intWidth = $intSize;
}
elseif($intSrcH > $intSrcW) {
$intHeight = $intSize;
$intWidth = ceil(($intSrcW/$intSrcH) * $intSize);
}
else {
$intWidth = $intSize;
$intHeight = ceil(($intSrcH/$intSrcW) * $intSize);
}

$imgThm=imagecreate($intWidth,$intHeight);

if(
!@imageCopyResampled(
$imgThm,
$imgSrc,
0,
0,
0,
0,
$intWidth,
$intHeight,
$intSrcW,
$intSrcH
)
) {
imageCopyResized(
$imgThm,
$imgSrc,
0,
0,
0,
0,
$intWidth,
$intHeight,
$intSrcW,
$intSrcH
);
}

but i found it easier to use ImageMagick's convert tool, called via an
exec() in my thumbnailing script.
