You need to use POST, and some enctype-this-or-that-stuff. There is plenty
of material available on that, googling "cherrypy file upload" results in
this as first hit:

I don't have that code handy, no idea where it is lying around. Try sharpen
your google-foo, it certainly can use it. Googling "javascript image
resizing server side" resulted in this 

http://ajaxian.com/archives/iphoto-like-image-resizing-using-javascript

as second hit.

I don't mind answering off-topic-questions here, but essentially these are
things better suited for HTML, JS and HTTP-fora of whatever kind.
