Phil Bogle wrote recently about an awesome image resizing algorithm. I found out via a welsh view what happened to it. It’s been launched as a website called RSizr.com and is also available as a Gimp plugin called Liquid Rescale. It’s really really cool to see this amazing algo take the open source route.

It’s an incredibly smart algo – I tried it on a Google Analytics graph and it shrunk the graph without breaking the line while maintaining the text scale.

It’d be awesome to see this as a feature in Image Magick so we can put more web front-ends on it.
