Ordinarily, the old way would be to use timthumb however, there was a big hu-har when a security issue was unveiled. Now it's pretty much safe to use, the only problem is it still doesn't address the issue of bandwidth if you try and use a massive picture.

The solution is to resize the picture on upload. I believe wordpress does this on upload. So it should generate a number of thumbs with specific dimensions.

You would then just code these into your footer as you would do a normal wordpress query.
