Content Aware Image Resizing
Aug 27th, 2007 by Andy
This is pretty dang cool. I’m not how often people would actually manually resize an image by dragging its corner but certainly the ability to dynamically resize an image for different devices would be very useful.
It will also be interesting to see if people react to how these photos are altered. There is value in being able to cram the “important” parts of a photo into a smaller space - but it certainly becomes a different photo. In some circumstance people should be made aware of the fact that they’re viewing an altered image.
