Seems the various ways people are trying to proportionaly scale an image, up or down, could be more straight forward if one remembers ones algebra.
The formula is, y = mx, where m is the slope of the line. This is the ratio of y:x or m = y/x.
So if...
// max values for x and y
$y_max = 600;
$x_max = 800;
// image size
$y1 = 2000;
$x1 = 3000;
// use width for scaling
if ($x1 > $x_max)
{
// find slope
$m = $y1/$x1;
// set x side to max
$x2 = $x_max;
// set y side to a proportional size
$y2 = $m * $x1;
}
The new image proportionally scaled will be x2 = 800, y2 = 533 (rounded).
To do it from the y side, simply reverse the x's and y's.
