    Why not simply upload the large image, and use a rescaling tool like imageGen to resize the images for you?

    Alternatively, you could look into the imagecropper datatype, although it is a big buggy

    By default Umbraco does create a thumbnail of the image you have uploaded.

    You can do this and also create multiple version by going to the upload datatype under developer and insert 100;250;400

    This will then upload the image and create 3 additional versions to the above mentioned sizes.
