## Description

Picgrab is a plugin that download, resize and crop an image on the fly.
 Simply 
add the “resize” attribute in the img tag you want to grab & resize on your post.

E.g.
 <img src= »http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3532/3243887563_700849f242.jpg »
resize= »402×200c;66y » /> Once activated, the plugin replaces the attribute “src”
on img tags containing the « resize » attribute with something like:

http://yoursite/wp-content/plugins/picgrab/resize.php?url=<coded characters>&size
=<coded characters>
 and removes the « resize » attribute.

The resize.php script included with plugin does the work to grab, crop and resize
the image.
 It also manages the cache. The resize attribute format is:

[(x0,y0,xs,ys)]<xd>x|x<yd>|<xd>x<yd>[c[<crop>]][;<cachetime>]

e.g. 100x, x200, 100×50, 100×200c50, 100×200c

Refer to [This post](http://fabrizio.zellini.org/resize-e-crop-immagini-in-php) 
for more informations on resizer syntax.
