nahhh, if you're doing a lot of images on a page, doing a system call for
each one would generate entirely too much overhead, imo.
check out the built-in image manipulation functions in php.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.image.php
there is a function called ImageCopyResized() which is probably what you would need to
use. i used to have a thumbnailer written in php but alas, it's been so long ago,
that i forgot how i wrote it. :)
