Automated Image Editing, WOW!
I wandered into this youtube video showing a cool technology for expanding and contracting images based on their content. It means you can scale an image to fit the space you need but the important content inside the image is not distorted.
It works by finding complex routes across the image that are least interesting and removing or interpolating along that route.
It not easy to describe, just watch the video...
And this isn't just some sci-fi technical paper, you can now get it as a plug-in for the UNIX image editor, GIMP.

The GIMP isn't just for Unix, there are Windoze and Mac versions, too!
Very true, my mistake. Although as I understand it, the mac version is just the UNIX version running in the X11 windowing environment.
