Thanks for the link. I guess I know what I will be blogging about next.

It's based on something called seam carving (here's one <a href="http://www.seamcarving.com/" rel="nofollow">video</a>) and it essentially lets you change the ratio of the photo WITHOUT losing any content - in other words, you can shrink the background of a beach scene, while keeping the people in it normal sized. Seems like a magic trick. There's a few other applications that do this too but rsizr's the only finished one I know. I've been compiling lists of these online photo apps and you've pointed out a few I've never seen, so thanks!
