How to achieve an image of a nonstandard size?

[borro]

Hello!

I'm developing the module, which have to display the product images of nonstandard size. It have to display neirther full images nor thumbs, something between these sizes. Is there any builtin VM functions that can display/generate such images? Or may be it's better to display full images with a litle css styling and use lazy load. Or may be its better to generate a new image files using detailed images by some php or something else. What do you think?

I'm looking a decision which is most efficient for reducing traficc and thus the page loading time. Low CPU cost is also welcome.

You can generate different size thumbs - http://docs.virtuemart.net/tutorials/templating-layouts/222-different-thumbnail-sizes.html

I'd probably just use css. though.
