    Hi,

    I have tried searching for this on the forum but only old threads come up.

    I simply need to pass a url to a script which then saves a thumbnail of the url on to my server.

    Thanks in advanced for your advice.

    Cheers,
    Adam

    The webthumb api is a very nice tool and unless you have administrator access on your server is probably the best way to go.

    I haven't come across that khtml2png app before. It looks good, especially the ability to construct thumbs which are higher or wider than a browser window.
