You are all right and I agree with you. I was answering the original message, wich asks how to show all the images the same size regardless of the original size. I really prefeer to use true thumbnails, because of the size (in bytes).
Talking about "dumbnails". Agreeing with 'zentara', the disadvantage of this method is that you need to load the entire image, making the page slower (assuming you are loading an index page for images). I have found useful for making thumbnails of the same size, regardless of the original size, the program "Express Thumbnail Creator", from Express Soft (theres is a full working demo version). It doesn't matter the dimensions of your images, it can crop all the thumbnails to the same size, without deformation.
