For anyone having this problem in the future... This was my fix for the Gallerific add-on in packages->jb_gallerific->helpers->imageresizer.php replace the first couple of functions with this...

[code]
public function create($originalPath, $newPath, $width, $height) {
// first, we grab the original image. We shouldn't ever get to this function unless the image is valid
$imageSize = @getimagesize($originalPath);
$oWidth = $imageSize[0];
$oHeight = $imageSize[1];
$finalWidth = 0;
$finalHeight = 0;

// first, if what we're uploading is actually smaller than width and height, we do nothing
if ($oWidth < $width && $oHeight < $height) {
$finalWidth = $oWidth;
$finalHeight = $oHeight;
} else {
// otherwise, we do some complicated stuff
// first, we divide original width and height by new width and height, and find which difference is greater
$wDiff = $oWidth / $width;
$hDiff = $oHeight / $height;
if ($wDiff > $hDiff) {
// there's more of a difference between width than height, so if we constrain to width, we should be safe
$finalWidth = $width;
$finalHeight = $oHeight / ($oWidth / $width);
} else {
// more of a difference in height, so we do the opposite
$finalWidth = $oWidth / ($oHeight / $height);
$finalHeight = $height;
}
}

$image = @imageCreateTrueColor($finalWidth, $finalHeight);
switch($imageSize[2]) {
case IMAGETYPE_GIF:
$im = @imageCreateFromGIF($originalPath);
break;
case IMAGETYPE_JPEG:
$im = @imageCreateFromJPEG($originalPath);
break;
case IMAGETYPE_PNG:
$im = @imageCreateFromPNG($originalPath);
break;
}

if ($im) {
// Better transparency - thanks for the ideas and some code from mediumexposure.com
if (($imageSize[2] == IMAGETYPE_GIF) || ($imageSize[2] == IMAGETYPE_PNG)) {
$trnprt_indx = imagecolortransparent($im);

// If we have a specific transparent color
if ($trnprt_indx >= 0) {

// Get the original image's transparent color's RGB values
$trnprt_color = imagecolorsforindex($im, $trnprt_indx);

// Allocate the same color in the new image resource
$trnprt_indx = imagecolorallocate($image, $trnprt_color['red'], $trnprt_color['green'], $trnprt_color['blue']);

// Completely fill the background of the new image with allocated color.
imagefill($image, 0, 0, $trnprt_indx);

// Set the background color for new image to transparent
imagecolortransparent($image, $trnprt_indx);


} else if ($imageSize[2] == IMAGETYPE_PNG) {

// Turn off transparency blending (temporarily)
imagealphablending($image, false);

// Create a new transparent color for image
$color = imagecolorallocatealpha($image, 0, 0, 0, 127);

// Completely fill the background of the new image with allocated color.
imagefill($image, 0, 0, $color);

// Restore transparency blending
imagesavealpha($image, true);

}
}

$res = @imageCopyResampled($image, $im, 0, 0, 0, 0, $finalWidth, $finalHeight, $oWidth, $oHeight);
if ($res) {
switch($imageSize[2]) {
case IMAGETYPE_GIF:
$res2 = imageGIF($image, $newPath);
break;
case IMAGETYPE_JPEG:
$res2 = imageJPEG($image, $newPath, AL_THUMBNAIL_JPEG_COMPRESSION);
break;
case IMAGETYPE_PNG:
$res2 = imagePNG($image, $newPath);
break;
}
}
}
}
