Is there a script or any way I can resize the pictures before

Sure, you'll have to write something client-side, namely javascript
to do it. But, there's all sorts of javascript scripts to resize
images available to choose from, try Google "resize images javascript"
I don't believe there is any way to actually modify and image file on
the client-side using Javascript. (If someone knows a way, I'd love
to hear about it!) For client-side image processing you'd need use a
technology that has image resampling capabilities, and possibly
something that has write permissions on the client's machine. First
thing that comes to mind is a Java applet.
php Gallery created a desktop client that serves a similar purpose,
but I'm pretty sure it's specific to the php Gallery API. But this
gives you an idea of what it would take to implement client-side
image resizing... probably Java.

Here's one that should do with a little work:

This is cool, but it doesn't actually resize the image. It just
displays different pre-sized images that are already on the server.
Here's one that allows the user to crop and resize their pictures.

and-imagemagick/
Also cool stuff, but all the processing happens on the server-side.
