#smart_resize_image_png Resizes you image and returns a PNG in a lot of different ways. You don't have to worry about ratios, transparencys or file types, you'll get a PNG just as you wish.

Forked from @maxim's.

##Features/Usage:

• If you pass width as 0 (zero) -- this function will disregard width, and use height as constraint. Same vice versa.
• If you set "proportional" to false - the function will simply stretch (or shrink) the image to its full constraints.
• If one of the dimensions is set to zero, and proportional set to "false" - then the image will be forced to stretch or shrink the other dimension, and disregard the zeroed dimension (leave it the same).
• If proportional is set to true - the image will resize to constraints proportionally, once again, with possibility to have either width or height set to zero.
• The function can use either linux "rm" command, or php @unlink. Most probably you don't need to ever use that flag, but on some setups - @unlink won't work due to user access restrictions.
• The function will simply replace the file that you give it, with the resized file.
• The function supports gif, png, and jpeg, and preserves the transparency of gif and png images.
• Tested on GD version 2.0.28 only.

There is a parameter "output" which can be set to either:

• "file" - overwrite the given file (default)
• "browser" - output image through http - with correct mime type
• "return" - return GD Library Image object
• or any filename of choice - save changed version to output path

There is another parameter "delete_original". Speaks for itself.

##TODO

• Get it working just with PNG.
• Add a "sharper" to small resizes.
• Clean up a little bit.
