Yeah I'd already tried MAC address cloning. I also went away for a week and left both the router and the modem switched off, which should have cured that problem were that the cas…

Thumbnails on the Fly? — #2

I've got a slightly different version of that scheme deployed on one site, which uses GD to resize a photo on upload and generate a thumbnail that's stored elsewhere. (It's a slowe…

Fascinating. I think for my purposes I'm persuaded that the best approach is to auto-generate the thumbnails when the images are first uploaded. But would that entail triggering s…

A lot of content management systems use a form for uploading an image that calls the creation of thumbnails. You could also simply have an administrative page with a call to search…

You could write a script called thumb.php. So a request for thumb.php?file=mypic.jpg will serve up mypic.jpg in thumbnail form. You can take that a step further too. You can use…
