I just can't puzzle out what you mean. What exactly do you mean by "outside of the server"? What are you trying to accomplish?

I need to access an image hosted on a different server so that my server can resize the image and save it on my server.

Use
LWP::Simple
[search.cpan.org] to fetch the image from the server
Save the image on the local machine
Use
Image::Size
[search.cpan.org] to resize the image
