Is it possible or I should use some external library such as http://image.intervention.io/getting_started/introduction?

I'm guessing that you could override the destination path in your plugin. Here's an example of how Laravel uploads files:

http://maxoffsky.com/code-blog/uploading-files-in-laravel-4/

But what is the point of this method? It's helpful for versioning and such that everything is kept in the /uploads/ folder, and you can always link to those just as well as assets. That helps keep the site structure organized.

Oh I'm sorry. I completely skimmed over the image manipulation part. As far as I know, Laravel doesn't include one by default. So you're probably correct about needing the Intervention or some other third-party library (such as GD).

Yes I needed the same. I edited the composer.json file for intervention like this:

"require": {
    "php": ">=5.4",
    "laravel/framework": "4.2.*",
    "october/system": "~1.0",
    "october/backend": "~1.0",
    "october/cms": "~1.0",
    "october/rain": "~1.0",
    "intervention/image": "2.*"
},

but when I try to update via command line with "composer update" it says "killed" after some time.

To update composer, I need to make a swap file on the root of my server. Simply composer update with the new json file fails because of memory.

On the other hand, after completing composer update, I added two lines to app/config/app.php as indicated in the laravel intallation documentation at the site of intevention. http://image.intervention.io/getting_started/installation

After you have installed Intervention Image, open your Laravel config file config/app.php and add the following lines.

Instead of this, october users should go to the "app/config/app.php" of the october root. In the $providers array add the service providers for this package.

'Intervention\Image\ImageServiceProvider'

Add the facade of this package to the $aliases array.

'Image' => 'Intervention\Image\Facades\Image'

Is there a way to catch the uploaded image to resize? Something like onUpload event to resize the original uploaded image. I need that to prevent oversize of products images. I actually use the afterSave event, but the newest uploaded images are not loaded on the event.

public function afterSave() {
    if($this->images->count()) {
        /** @var DashboardProperty $settings */
        $settings = DashboardProperty::instance();
        foreach($this->images as $image) {
            /** @var \Intervention\Image\Image $img */
            $img = Image::make($image->getDiskPath());
            $imgHeight = $img->height();
            $imgWidth  = $img->width();
            $width     = null;
            $height    = null;
            if($imgWidth > $settings->max_image_width || $imgHeight > $settings->max_image_height){
                if ($imgWidth >= $imgHeight) {
                    $width = $settings->max_image_width;
                } else {
                    $height = $settings->max_image_height;
                }

                $img->resize($width, $height, function ($constraint) {
                    $constraint->aspectRatio();
                    $constraint->upsize();
                })->save();
            }
        }
    }
}

Any help on it? Thanks and sorry my english.

I was able to get something working using the Model's listener, and without requiring Intervention\Image:

use October\Rain\Database\Attach\Resizer;
... 

EngineeredWood::saving( function($wood)
{

    if($wood->main_image)
    {
        $path = base_path() . MediaLibrary::instance()->getPathUrl('/');
        $file = "{$path}/$wood->main_image";
        $thumbFile = "{$file}-600.jpg";
        if (!file_exists($thumbFile))
        {
            Resizer::open($file)
                ->resize(600, 600, 'exact')
                ->save($thumbFile);
        }
    }
});
