Just a note, the
free, open-source Dynamic Images module that I recently released (available at
PHP Site Solutions, is essentially thumb_imp revamped, as the thumb_imp plugin for Smarty that is available, has several flaws.
Granted, the revamped code may have flaws as well, but regardless, I've moved the code forward, made improvements, and will keep on making improvements.
The Dynamic Images module itself is not a direct replacement of Telafirma's module, but Dynamic Images could easily be extended to support all of Telafirma's functionality.
If anything, I suggest trying out my modified function.thumb.php and function.thumb_imp.php files, as I've improved some issues such as caching (previously, a cached image could be recreated several different times, depending on your usage of the {thumb} plugin functionality), I've added support for http URLs to images, and more.
