(all above mentioned

To resize photos, (i.e. making auto-thumbnails, resizing
images more than the Maximum width, height limit set by you)
can be done using 2 ways,
- GD Library: It is available with PHP 4 distribution,
currently due copyright issues, versions of GD older than
gd-1.6 support gif format images, and do not support png,
where versions greater than gd-1.6 support png, not gif.
Minimum GD 1.6 or lower is required which is default with
PHP 4.x versions. But the system requires GD library 2.0
+ for best performance, which is freely available from
www.boutell.com/gd/
which will support jpg & png.
