PHP ImageResize
===============

[](#php-imageresize)

ImageResize is a simple PHP class that can be used to resize images on the fly using PHP's native [GD library](http://php.net/manual/en/book.image.php). The library is also able to add watermarks and text overlays to your images automatically.

The only dependency for this Class is that the GD library be installed on your server. You must be running **PHP >= 5.6**.
