That did not make a noticable improvement. Does it matter what combination is active? For example

ImageAntiAlias($photoImage, true);
and
imagecopyresampled($thumb_img, $photoImage, 0,0,0,0, imagesx($thumb_img), imagesy($thumb_img), imagesx($photoImage), imagesy($photoImage));


or

ImageAntiAlias($photoImage, true);
and
imagecopyresized($thumb_img, $photoImage, 0,0,0,0, imagesx($thumb_img), imagesy($thumb_img), imagesx($photoImage), imagesy($photoImage));


or does that not make a difference?
