Thumbnails in Rails ..

Hi Champs,

Actually, i am uploading a file to my server.. Now suppose if i uploads the file of more than 1Mb.. then its taking a lot of space.. And also taking a lot of time in showing that image .. Just like thumbnails .. :slight_smile: So now what i want is that is there any way by which i can reduce or minimize the size of the file before saving to my database .. I mean how to create thumbnail .. Want to know each and every possible way .. if possible .. ?

Can anybody listen me .. At least suggest me some tutorials .. ? Doing it with Image Science .. But did'nt find too much about it on theirs website also 'http://seattlerb.rubyforge.org/ImageScience.html" .. I am installing it as given in their site .. But its not installed .. I am using Centos-5 ..

Waiting for u guyz ..

Then you have a lot of research to do...

I started with

and use Rmagick (no experience on Centos, I use Ubuntu). Links to other items (image processors) are available from the clarkware site.
