Has anyone ever heard of a program that will copy and then shrink an image for you once it’s uploaded onto your webserver?  
(Preferably in ColdFusion–but OK if in Perl)

Right now people are uploading their HUGE images (like 400K) through my website onto the server. But I need these images also in a thumbnail format so that site visitors can browse through lists of like 100 of them. So I need both the big image and a smaller thumbnail image. But I only want the submitter to have to submit one BIG image.

THanks in advance, guys!
