You need to get the "image dimension" of your image's window, which
returns a list of horizontal and vertical dimensions in pixels. Divide
110 by the horizontal dimension to get the reduction factor. Multiply
the vertical dimension by the reduction factor. The rounded result is
your new vertical dimension. 110 is your new horizontal dimension. Set
the image dimension to a list made up of the new x and y dimensions and
you've got your thumbnails.
