How about reading half the image, and assembling after you resize and take a
snapshot?


You can read half the image or by quarters Using a loop and reading the file
the "traditional" way with Open, read, close file...


Just wondering... ;)


The JPEG format is a compressed format, with a header that may or may not contain EXIF information and a thumbnail, followed by the compressed data. You cannot simply open the file, read half of it, and expect it to be half of the picture -- that's not how compression works. You have to find the header, skip the header, and then uncompress it as you read each byte or sequence of bytes.
