There is great custom tag called cfx_image that is just what you need. You can upload 1 picture and the tag will resize it to whatever height/width you specify, automaticaly create a thumbnail of whatever size you specify, plus a whole lot more! You can get it off of the Developer's exchange

There's also another one called cfx_imageCR that has some of the same features as well.
