Saving pictures from the web onto your server (GD problem)

[748323]

I made this script. It is supposed to copy the image, and save it on my server. For the most part, it does do what's its supposed to do.

<?

$image = imagecreatefromjpeg("[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.rareteens.com/teen/met50/2.jpg");[/URL]
imagejpeg($image, "pic.jpg");

?>

This would load the picture, and save it on my server. The only problem is that it only saved half it on my server. I'm assuming it ran out of memory to place the colors in and just made the rest of the pixels white. How can I bypass this?

This is what the script gives me:

Thanks.

If you can open a URL with the imagecreatefromjpeg() function, you can certainly open a URL with the copy() function.

If your goal is to copy the file onto your server, I don't see any point of running it through the GD libraries.


I assume, of course, that your copying of the images does not violate copyright law.
