help needed to resize an image in php - php

Question

I have a bit of code that generates thumbnails from an uploaded image. The only problem is that it cuts portrait images off, rather than resizing the portrait image to fit the height of the thumbnail, landscape images are fine. I was wondering if anyone could help me out to change the code so it will place portrait images inside the thumbnail properly? (if that makes sense?)
Here's the code:
$setSize = 150;
$setHSize = 113;
$jpeg_quality = 75;
list($width, $height, $type, $attr) = getimagesize($origPath);
$newW = $setSize;
$newH = round( $height * ( $setSize / $width ) );
$img_r = imagecreatefromjpeg($origPath) or notfound();
$dst_r = ImageCreateTrueColor( $setSize, $setHSize );
$heightOffset = round( ($setHSize-$newH)/2 );
$white = imagecolorallocate($dst_r, 255, 255, 255);
imagefilledrectangle($dst_r, 0, 0, $setSize, $setHSize, $white);
imagecopyresampled($dst_r, $img_r, 0, $heightOffset, 0, 0, $newW, $newH, $width, $height);
header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
imagejpeg($dst_r, $thbPath, $jpeg_quality);
I just don't fully understand the way php creates images, so any help would be appreciated :)

Answer 1

The way you compute $newW and $newH is incorrect for what you want. You are giving preference to the width, so most landscape images will look okay, but portrait will be cut off. Try the following instead:
// assume landscape and see how things look
$newW = $setSize;
$newH = round( $height * ( $setSize / $width ) );
if ($newH > $setHSize) {
// portrait image
$newH = $setHSize;
$newW = round( $width * ( $setHSize / $height ) );
}
I hope this helps!
