Which free image resizing library can I use for resizing and probably serving images? [closed]

Question

I have used Umbraco and there is very nice ImageGen library there which allows to resize images 'on the fly' and cashes processed images.

Is there something similar to it I can use outside Umbraco?

(I thought I could use ImageGen without Umbraco but it looks like it is not free)

Thanks

Answer 1

I wrote the ImageResizer HttpModule, which is free, open-source, and freely supported through the StackOverflow imageresizer tag.

It has 39 plugins, some of which require a license, but all of the source code for everything is available at http://imageresizing.net/download.

It works with all .NET CMSes, including Umbraco.

Unlike ImageGen, it is designed to scale up to millions of images.

Answer 2

I realise this question is quite old, but since I still stumbled across it, I thought I should post my findings.

http://imageprocessor.org/ seems to be a relatively new library that is free and open source, and has quite a number of features too!
