I use a combination of cjpeg, djpeg, and pnmscale to handle this.
Here is a snippet of PHP. Excuse the wrapping.
if ( !move_uploaded_file( $file['tmp_name'], $filename.".jpg" ) )
trigger_error( "Possible file upload attack. File ".$file['name'] );
if ( system( "/usr/local/bin/djpeg ".$filename.".jpg > ".$filename.".pnm
2>> ../errlog.txt" ) == "FALSE" )
trigger_error( "failed to decompress ".$filename.".jpg" );
if ( system( "/usr/local/bin/pnmscale -xysize 110 140 ".$filename.".pnm
> ".$filename."1.pnm 2>> ../errlog.txt" ) == "FALSE" )
trigger_error( "failed to scale ".$filename.".pnm" );
if ( system( "/usr/local/bin/cjpeg -smooth 10 -qual 50
".$filename."1.pnm > ./images/users/".$userid.".jpg 2>> ../errlog.txt" )
== "FALSE" )
trigger_error( "failed to compress ".$filename."1.pnm"
);
