Generating thumbnails on the fly
I have a site that lets a user create multiple galleries. For each gallery they can upload an image to be the image for that gallery.
I want to generate a thumbnail for each gallery to display on a page, however depending on the template they have selected (in another part of the control panel) the thumbnails should be a different size.
Am I better off generating the thumbnails (either using PHPThumb or the GD library) on the fly each time this page is loaded or should I generate the thumbs as the gallery is created and then re-generate all of the current thumbs if/when they change their template?
