Look at it as a logical step by step process .

(1) create a 800x600 blank image using gd or im

(2) grab the html code from the website

(3) write script to scan html code for stuff like background colour

(4) fill 800x600 with found background colour (or white if none found)

(5) write script to check for <img> etc in the html code

(6) paste images onto 800x600 image

(7) write text onto 800x600 image

(8) shrink 800x600 image to thumbnail size

Even if you cant actually do it - you will learn loads from trying .
