question on "true image resizing" article

[Guest]

Hello,
I'm hoping went through Scott Mitcell's article on true image resizing.
Looking through the article, it's not clear where to put the
"GetThumbNailImage" method

Thanks!

With all due respect, have you read Page 2? This explains it quite nicely.
http://aspnet.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/012203-1.2.aspx

To generalize:
WebForm1.aspx
- contains the <img src="ShowImage.aspx?img={filename here}">

ShowImage.aspx
- the Page_Load event contains the code for resizing an image and displaying
the produced thumbnail

HTH,
Jody

Thanks Jody! I worked off a printed copy, somehow pg 2 was missing and so I
didn't relize it. Thanks!

As a side note, creating an ASPX page for this sort of thing os overkill
and slightly less efficient than implementing your own HttpHandler. Here's
a [pre-built] sample that implements a handler and does the thumbnail resizing:
