Default Creating an image editor

Hi!

I'm basicly looking for a way to start, some tutorials that might help, and general tips of how to achieve this.

What I want to do is create a image editor, that I can use to edit images hosted on my server. The reason why I want it with AJAX is because I want it to be a live edit, and people should be able to see their edits(which actually only is a preview until they press the "edit" button). I have a image manipulation class, provided by Enfernikus(with some modifications), and basicly, I have no idea how to start.

How do I make it so it "loads" an image?
How can I create buttons for different tools? For example resizing, cropping(which would bring up a black-lined square which could be transformed by dragging in the sides), etc. How would I make them link to the PHP functions?

The basic question is, how would I achieve this?
Thanks in advance!
