Ram,

I use Image::Thumbnail (available on CPAN) to convert jpegs, but I'm
sure there's a way to get gifs working.  This module sits on top of GD
which can be trouble to setup.

Anyway, here's a script I use to convert images to thumbnails:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use Image::Thumbnail;

$src_dir = "/home/ic/catalogs/em/images/items";
$dest_dir = "/home/ic/catalogs/em/images/thumb";

opendir(DIR, $src_dir) or die "can't opendir $src_dir: $!";

while (defined($file = readdir(DIR))) {
        if($file =~ /je?pg$/) {

                print "$src_dir/$file\n";
                print "$dest_dir/$file\n";
                # Create a thumbnail from 'test.jpg' as 'test_t.jpg'
                # using ImageMagick, or GD.
                my $t = new Image::Thumbnail(
                        module     => GD,
                        size       => 100,
                        create     => 1,
                        inputpath  => "$src_dir/$file",
                        outputpath => "$dest_dir/$file",
                );

        }
}

HTH,
Kevin
