Usa este script, a mi me funciona perfectamente,
modifica los valores $max_upload_width ó $max_upload_height para hacerlo a tu gusto, yo lo tengo que la foto, en este caso un avatar, me salga 200x200.
Código PHP:
<?
$max_upload_width = 200;
$max_upload_height = 200;
$remote_file = "../fotografias/".$_FILES["imagen"]["name"]; //la ruta donde se encuentra la imagen
imagejpeg($image_source,$remote_file,100);
chmod($remote_file,0777);
list($image_width, $image_height) = getimagesize($remote_file);
if($image_width>$max_upload_width || $image_height >$max_upload_height)
{
$proportions = $image_width/$image_height;
if($image_width>$image_height){
$new_width = $max_upload_width;
$new_height = round($max_upload_width/$proportions);
}
else{
$new_height = $max_upload_height;
$new_width = round($max_upload_height*$proportions);
}
$new_image = imagecreatetruecolor($new_width , $new_height);
$image_source = imagecreatefromjpeg($remote_file);
imagecopyresampled($new_image, $image_source, 0, 0, 0, 0, $new_width, $new_height, $image_width, $image_height);
imagejpeg($new_image,$remote_file,100);
imagedestroy($new_image);
}
imagedestroy($image_source);
?>
Saludos
