Resizing Images with ASP Classic

Zone: Active Server Pages (ASP)

Tags: ASP Classic, all

Hi Folks,

Can anyone recommend a utility to resize images on the fly for my ASP based web-site? I'm looking for something very simple with the idea of making my life easier, not necessarily adding features. I have many products on my site, and various pages want to display thumbnails of various sizes. Rather than having 4 or 5 pics per product that need to be manually generated, I'd like to just put the biggest one on there (maybe 600 x 600px) and then use normal ASP to call for the image in a particular size. The image will not need to be saved, just served to the client browser.

I've looked at a couple of other posts on this subject and I'm a little confused about how some of these utilities that were recommended work. They seem to be designed for webs where the image is the main focus, rather than for a normal eCommerce site just trying to make life a little easier for the guy who has to maintain it. csImageFile for example seems to require a call to another page, and that other page actually displays the image. I need these resized images to be handled just like any other. They may need to be hidden with javascript or layers, there may be 30 small thumbnails on one page, etc.

Doesn't need to be free, and the more idiot-proof the more I'm willing to pay for it. My web is on a dedicated win2000 server (so I can register com's or whatever).

Any and all help will be appreciated.
Ron
