u can use this:

//define upload path & dir

if (strpos($url, $upload_url) === false)
return false;
//define path of image
$rel_path = str_replace($upload_url, \'\', $url);
$img_path = $upload_dir . $rel_path;
//check if img path exists, and is an image indeed
if (!file_exists($img_path) OR !getimagesize($img_path))
return false;
//get image info
$info = pathinfo($img_path);
$ext = $info[\'extension\'];
list($orig_w, $orig_h) = getimagesize($img_path);
//get image size after cropping
$dims = image_resize_dimensions($orig_w, $orig_h, $width, $height, $crop);
$dst_w = $dims[4];
$dst_h = $dims[5];
//use this to check if cropped image already exists, so we can return that instead
$suffix = "{$dst_w}x{$dst_h}";
$dst_rel_path = str_replace(\'.\' . $ext, \'\', $rel_path);
$destfilename = "{$upload_dir}{$dst_rel_path}-{$suffix}.{$ext}";
if (!$dst_h) {
//can\'t resize, so return original url
$img_url = $url;

}
//else check if cache exists
elseif (file_exists($destfilename) && getimagesize($destfilename)) {

}
//else, we resize the image and return the new resized image url
else {

$image = array(
0 => $img_url,
