You are correct, imagejpeg does send to the browser, however OB() is output buffer and stuffs it in a var for you to echo it, so you can then work with it or use the example above.

There are alot of articles on image manipulation. All frown on the use of image manipulation on the fly. The bench marks on vBGarage doing image resize on the fly would have made you cringe. We have since changed it. Just a note.
