Does it make more sense to generate the thumbnails at the time of upload or should that be done on the fly when the thumbnail page is displayed?
Definitely at the time of upload, maybe better yet - at some scheduled time. But never on the fly. Image manipulation is a heavy load task and you want to do it as few times as possible, and hopefully at times when there is as little other load as possible. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create Web Applications With ColdFusion MX7 & Flex 2.
