how do I create thumbnail photos for web page?
« on: August 01, 2004, 03:42:03 pm »
I thought I would try to put together a web page of my latest cab.  But, how do I make those thumbnail pics that you click on to open the full sized pic?  I assume a program like photoshop would do it, which I don't have.  But WinXP can be set to show thumbnails when browsing folders, so it must be something simple I can do w/o buying an expensive program?

thanks,

give this link here a shot...click it and pick one

I personally like Fookes Software (haven't used THIS software, but I've used other from them, good stuff) but I have Photoshop, so I resize for web with that.

You’re always in control of your behavior. Sometimes you just control yourself
in ways that you later wish you hadn’t

Does your web host support scrpting, like cgi or php?  There's script out there where all you have to do is put the pics in a folder and it will automatically thumbnail and gallery that folder.
