How to put resized images into blobs ?

I'm trying to put an image resized qith GD into a MYSQL blob.

I load the image from a HTML form, then I resize it, save it to the server disk, and then reload it to store the data into the blob.

How can I do this without writing the file on the server disk ?

thanks

You can't, GD can only output GD streams or files, not file-data.

Storing images in a mysql blob is a very bad idea anyway.

Keep images where they belong, on the disk.

A forum, a FAQ, email notification, what else do you need?

Ok...

Thanks for your help.

I know it's a bad idea to store images into a mysql database, but my server administrator allows only that to me. 🙁(

bad server administrator, very bad.
