I try to resize jpeg from photo size to thumbnails, however the thumbnails quality is bad, it looks fade and blur, I have no idea how to improve the quality of thumbnails.
PHP resize function:
-----
$first=imagecreatefromjpeg($uploadfile)
$second=imagecreate($new_width, $new_height);
imagecopyresized($second,$first,0,0,0,0,$new_width,$new_height,$width,$height);
imagejpeg($second,$v_thumbnailfile);
-----

Thanks for any response.
