resizing upon upload

[eluser]Bramme[/eluser]
Hello all

I was wondering: is it possible to resize an image upon upload? Or do I first have to upload and save it to the server, then resize it and get rid of the original?

That's what I would do.

Don't know how you pretend to resize a image that isn't already on the server?!

Maybe I understood it wrong...

Yeah... My brain is a bit numb. Never mind this question :p

Check out CI's image manipulation class. First you upload, then you resize - and you can optionally make the resized image a thumbnail or replace the original.

Yeah forgot that you can just replace the original. Should come in handy.
