Hi Friends,
I want to upload a image file to my mysql database. But before that i want to resize it. I have used the following code. But what happens is that the image is successfully resized but the quality is not retained. Please someone guide me with some help.
The code goes here:
The php part
The html form
Here is the code where i have displayed the uploaded image. the quality becomes bad here.
Waiting for reply...

try this code out i have no problems with the image quality with it.
just change the sql section to an insert and this should work fine for you.

if you look for the section where the values of $consname and $consname2 are set you can change where the files are stored on the server there.
if you want the oiginal image stored in the images folder then the line of code should look like this
and the thumbs to be stored in a thumb folder the next line of code will be
