Though I agree the reply given was rather crude, and I think also unnecessary, so was you question. It is rather a waste of the time of the list's membership to spend their time doing searches for you to find code packages. It is my impression, at least, that this list exists to provide assistance on a somewhat higher level of issues. Your question was worded in such a way that it wasn't very different from this: > Hi every one, > I want to create thumbnail of a photo stored in MySQL table online. > > Best Wishes, > S. Naqashzade And that is not something I care to bother with. I spent the effort of typing "php thumbnail mysql photo" into Google. And as a surprise to some, I had to refine the search once to get that, and what you're looking for you'll sometimes have to scroll down for or *gasp* even head to the next 10 results. I suggest going to Google's directory: http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/Programming/Languages/PHP/Scripts/ try doing a search for FAQ. Since I really don't know what it is you want, I can't help much more than that. The basic idea is spend some time searching, look inside of well-known script sites, dig through the search enginges... You might also be able to strip the FAQ section out of PHP Nuke, but that's a confusing mess in its own right. Forgive my bitterness, but Sometimes you end up looking at a question and going "Why am I wasting my time on this? This person expects me to do everything but make their site." Don't straight-up ask for info on questions that are covered EVERY WEEK, and do look at more than just one site. -Jeff SIG: HUP -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
