title: Re-sizing an image which in Base64 format and converting to Base64 again in java
body: <p>I was wondering if there is a way to read a string which is a Base64 representation of an image and resize it (scale down actually). After that converting it to Base64 again. 
  At the moment, to encode an image into a Base64 string I am using the <code>org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64</code> library. </p>
