Resized image

itHighway · October 12th, 2010, 08:38 AM

Hello,

I have very basic knowledge of ASP.net. I am using following script to resize and image, but the problem is it increases the disk volume of resized image to almost 4 times or original image.

Example:
Original Image: 1024 x 769px and Disk space: 135 KB
Resized Image: 600 x 380px and Disk space: 725KB

HTML Code:

	 dim g1 as System.Drawing.Image = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile(txtGetImage)  
	 dim thisFormat1=g1.rawformat  

	 '#600
     height = g1.Height / (g1.Width / 600)
			 
	 dim imgOutput1 as New Bitmap(g1, 600, height)  
	 imgOutput1.Save(txtMedium)
         g1.dispose()
	 imgOutput1.dispose()

Any idea, any help will be greatly appriciated.

Thanks!

Hello, Doing this you are storing the new file as a bitmap, aren't you?

Thanks for your response.
The original file format can be JPG, JPEG or GIF. I have to save the new file in JPG or GIF format.
