Free php and cpanel scripts to automate your daily routine

Free PHP Scripts :: Website Thumbnail Generator

Website Thumb Generator can be used to create website thumbnails for your needs, or start your own website thumbnail generation service.

Requirements:
  • Windows hosting
  • PHP GD library (installed on most hostings)
  • Permissions to execute third-party applications (i.e. exe files)
  • Permissions to execute Internet Explorer

How it works:
  • Website Thumbnail Generator checks if it already has website image in the cache, and shows it in the browser.
  • If no cached image then IECapt would be run from the script.
  • IECapt would run Internet Explorer, grab full sized website screenshot from it, and save image into the folder you specified in script settings.
  • Then Website Thumbnail Generator would resize image, and show it in the browser.

Installation:
  • Download IECapt from http://iecapt.sourceforge.net or from our site: IECapt. Place it in some folder on your server.
  • Download Website Thumbnail Generator using link below, and unzip it to the same folder.
  • Update webthumb.php with your settings for thumbnails folder, cache time, default thumbnail size, etc.

Sample usage:
  • webthumb.php?url=http://www.microsoft.com
  • webthumb.php?url=http://www.thumbnails.com&x=150&y=150

ofcourse there's no linux version, it's executing IE and IECapt. I guess if you have those running on linux then you'd have a linux version.

February 25, 2007
The concept is simple. There are lot's of linux web browser code out there. Someone could recreate the same idea as iecapt using an opensource browser.

But, it won't be me. As it turns out, this is a great solution for me as it.

bruederl [anti-spam] googlemail.com May 22, 2007
Thank you very much. I love your script. I have some additions:

if (isset($_REQUEST['url'])) {
$website_url = $_REQUEST['url'];
$website_url = trim($website_url);
if(strpos($website_url,"http://")===false)
$website_url = "http://".$website_url;
}

Because IECapt will hang if there is no http:// in front of the url.



$thumbnails_folder = strrev( strchr(strrev($_SERVER["SCRIPT_FILENAME"]),"/") )."cache/";

to be independent of installation location.

Pls help me..
admin [anti-spam] thumbnailspro.com July 29, 2007
The image proccessing automatically resizes the image based on requested size a request using &S=400 would display a thumbnails 400px in width and 300px in hieght! This is done to display a squared thumbnail, our premium service once complete which will be $10 a month will allow you to display full length thumbnails, http://thumbnailspro.com/examples.php, which would allow you to do 400x400!

Cant seem to get this to work om my Winxp box. I have PHP5 installed, but it seems like IECapt cannot write to the directory that I have specified. I enabled scripts and executables in the virtual folder, I gave the cache folder full permissions for IUSR_ANONYMOUS, and everyone. if i pipe the command out to the screen and run the IEcapt in CMD window, then it will create the picture, and then the PHP script will show the thumbnail. Any ideas?

jo January 31, 2008
very good script its only missing one thing .... a q'ing image saying somethin like thumb is being processed"

All xp users might have better luck using the location like this:

@exec('./location/to/IECapt.exe' . escapeshellarg($website_url) . ' ' . escapeshellarg($cached_filename));

instead of:

@exec('c:/xampp/IECapt.exe' . escapeshellarg($website_url) . ' ' . escapeshellarg($cached_filename));

I could not set this up. I ended up using Snapcasa which also provides free web page snapshots. Their service offers several different thumbnail sizes and the snapshots always appear really fast without the “Thumbnail Queued” image I used to get from other similar services. I also like how there is no script need to use it just an img tag in my html. Best of all its on their server and I dont have to use my system resources.
snapcasa.com

Thanks for the script anyway!

May 24, 2008
I find this script works well, but for me it gets overloaded then crashes. If I try and just do about 1-3 thumbs at a time, it works fine, but when a webpage of mine, www.iknowauto.com, tries to load 10-20 thumbs on the same page, and those thumbs have not yet been cached, the IECapt crashes. Anyone have a solution for this, maybe a way to increase the queued time?

http://www.mythumbnail.net/ is NOT working. Get an error

"Thumbnail Generation Error. Thumbnail not created."
Hello June 3, 2008
After spending a lot of time tring to set up a reliable way to capture webpage snapshots I gave up!
- Capturing snapshots is a resource hog.
- Security was a big issue; websites containing harmful script cannot be captured because they have to be loaded on your server making it vulnerable
- Huge bandwidth consumption
- There are so many different websites and issues you will run into such as pop up messages, flash, and JavaScript to name a few. It is difficult to capture a wide range of websites correctly.

My final solution was to abandon my attempt and use a free website thumbnail generator. Snapcasa serves about 16000+ website snapshots daily on three of my domains for free and without a watermark. There are many snapshot providers online but I found snapcasa.com to be the best. You may also want to try websnapr and picoshot but they have watermarks and have limited sizes. Save yourself the frustration I went through and let one of the online snapshot providers worry about it.

WebHead August 11, 2009
Most people need a LINUX version because most are using Apache on a LINUX server.
WebHead August 11, 2009
Perhaps looking into using ffmpeg, I am pretty sure it has a function to create thumbnails even from video. Or maybe MEncoder could be utilized for a LINUX version. The previous LINUX webthumb creater mentioned here uses Bash, which is not cool if you are on a hosted server, or even worse, a hosted virtual server. It needs to use image binaries that are already existant on the server in a standard LINUX install, or at least one that is commonly used and GNU.

Thumbnails don't get generated in png format. Jpg works though. I don't see why you'd want to use jpg for a thumbnail though. png is lossless and at that filesize, totally affordable.

I know not many people want to use other webthumb server from different companies. They want to create their own rather than copy it.

Aurelian December 21, 2011
Hi,
i read only some of the comments and i saw most of the people, like me, want an unix version. One exists: wkhtmltoimage. This guys have also screenshot to pdf and other stuff. I am using it on a production server, dedicated just for me, and if I make 12 thumbs on the fly it takes 60seconds so it would be wise to use in on every page generate one maybe every 30days, write them in a DB and use them from there. I am making a md5 sum with the pagename.position and thus i don't need it in a db i just call it using the same formula, knowing for sure that the file is there. Because i can't query the DB just for some thumbs. Think at solutions, there are many ways of using it. Best of wishes
Aurelian December 21, 2011
I just remembered, after making the thumb I use mogrify command to resize it.
Dana February 16, 2012
