Abstract

A system is disclosed whereby a user can upload image data into a central image database on a central server, using the processing power of a remote terminal computer to re-sample and resize each image according to a set of predetermined image parameters for storage in the central database.
More than one sized or sampled copy of each discrete image could be uploaded to said centralized image database, for use in various ways. The distribution of image standardization processing to the terminal CPUs lessens the processor load of the central server, as well as minimizing the upload bandwidth required between the terminal and the central server.
