Note  you should use the accepted answer if possible  It s better than mine   It s quite easy with the GD library   It s built in usually  you probably have it  use phpinfo   to check    image   imagecreatefromjpeg  http   images websnapr com  size size amp key Y64Q44QLt12u amp url http   google com     imagejpeg  image   folder file jpg      The above answer is better  faster  for most situations  but with GD you can also modify it in some form  cropping for example     image   imagecreatefromjpeg  http   images websnapr com  size size amp key Y64Q44QLt12u amp url http   google com    imagecopy  image   image  0  140  0  0  imagesx  image   imagesy  image    imagejpeg  image   folder file jpg      This only works if allow url fopen is true   it is by default

No need to create a GD resource  as someone else suggested    input    http   images websnapr com  size size amp key Y64Q44QLt12u amp url http   google com    output    google com jpg   file put contents  output  file get contents  input      Note  this solution only works if you re setup to allow fopen access to URLs  If the solution above doesn t work  you ll have to use cURL
