NetPBM image resize function -> question

This is less a gallery-specific question, more a programming question...

i've been working on some image resize functions for nukestyles, and all my code (for gd and netpbm) has been pieced together over the internet

i've come into an issue tho... since netpbm likes to maintain proportions (which is usually good), if there is a tall or wide image, it is usually WAY too small when the thumbnail is created...

shawn has asked me to make the resize function create non-proportional images, or at least have a minimum size limit... is there any way to do this with netpbm? i've had a hard time finding good enough documentation, so it's been a pain just creating the resize function that i have now, lol

if you have any suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated
thanks

Is there no DOCs at sourceforge?

there is, but i've come across nothing yet to set a minimum size limit for the image, or to set *exact* size without regard to the proportions

i must be looking in the wrong places, lol, but everything i've found so far (setting -width and -height, or just using -xysize) all seem to do the same thing, save proportion

i'll keep searching..

If you haven't aready done so - I would email Mr NETPBM.

His email is on the sourceforge site.

http://netpbm.sourceforge.net

Sad

Sry I can't help anymore (way above my head!! Laughing
