Yes, I am using this one and it works great! Just make sure your server
has the GD Library enable for PHP/Apache.
'On the Fly' Auto Thumbnailer using GD Library
This modification uses the GD 2 image library, which now comes packaged
with most PHP builds, to dynamically generate your product image
thumbnails on the fly. It works with GIFs, JPGs and PNGs, produces much
smaller thumbnail file sizes (saving bandwidth), maintains the proper
ratio of your pics, and does not create any extra files on your server.
Easy installation involves adding only one file and updating the
tep_image function. It should work with osC 2.1-2.2
Unfortunately, transparencies are not supported as of this release. GIF
creation was disabled in the GD Library due to liscencing issues with
Compuserve (Gifs are thumbnailed as JPGs), and I haven't got the PNG
transparencies quite worked out.
