Thumbnails in Rails

Rails
1

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 … ?

Then you have a lot of research to do…

I started with

http://clarkware.com/cgi/blosxom/2007/02/24#FileUploadFu

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