How can I slice images and save them using PHP?

Question

How would I slice an image up into, say 9 separate slices (3x3), and then save each individual slice to a folder? I've read that I'll need to use GD to achieve this, but I'm a total novice with this library.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

There are several libraries which do exactly what you want:
