Uses the GD image library for those who are already using something more advanced than Imager. =head2 Options The view is controlled by setting the following values in the stash: =over =item image Contains the file path for the full-size source image. This is a mandatory option. =item x The width (in pixels) of the thumbnail. This is optional, but at least one of the C or C parameters must be set. =item y The height (in pixels) of the thumbnail. This is optional, but at least one of the C or C parameters must be set. =back =head2 Image formats The generated thumbnails will always be produced in the same format (PNG, JPG, etc) as the source image. Catalyst::View::GD::Thumbnail uses the L module to crop and resize images, so it accept any image format supported by I: bmp, gif, jpeg, png, xbm, xpm. Please see the L documentation for more details and installation notes. =head1 BUGS Please report any bugs or feature requests to C, or through the web interface at L.
