Create from GD object

[jenstornell]

I've just written a converting library to convert all the common image formats from/to.

https://github.com/jenstornell/php-image-converter
free-open-source/php-image-converter#2

The pitfall of using it with this library is that I need to save the image two times, one for the format conversion and one for the resize.

That's because I can't create an image from a GD object. Here is a suggestion of how that could look like.

$image = ImageResize::createFromGD($gd_object);
$image->scale(50);
$image->save('image.jpg');

According to the one of image functions, the $gd_object type is resource?

I think we should consider following points if the author @adityapatadia will accept this feature request.

• Validate the $gd_object type is resource before manipulating the image.
  We can use the get_resource_type to handle this.

How about adding conversion functions to this library itself?
