PHP apparently has some functions for such tasks, as mentioned by another
poster. I can't comment on their usefulness, as I've never used them
myself.
There is a package (cross-platform) called ImageMagik which does a pretty
nice job of manipulating images from a command-line environment. This
isn't the most performance-savy option of course, being that you must
spawn an extra process each time you manipulate an image, but it's pretty
easy to work with on the commandline -- and therefor easy to work with
from PHP.
I once successfully integrated ImageMagick into a ColdFusion project*. IM
did it's job well, and left me pretty happy.
* If it sounds tricky, and somebody did it in ColdFusion, odds are you
can do it in PHP with about 1/4th the thought, and 1/4th the code. Plus
it'll run 4x faster, and never do weird things on you. Just my own
personal observation. :)
