Which is very bad practise.
Make you images the sizes they should be.
Making them smaller in an HTML page by setting width & height:
- Makes you download an unneccesary large image.
- Makes an ugly image because browser resizing isn't what is could be.
- width & height are originally designed to hint to the browser what the
dimensions are, so the page is rendered correctly before downloading the
images, and doesn't change oncethe images are in.
Make a thumbnail on the fly (or store them) using imagecopyresampled().
