Cool Photos

Check this out to see some really cool and creative photos by Chema Madoz.

Content Aware Image Resizing

This cool new technology presented at Siggraph 2007 could be useful. But, it has the potential to create as many problems as it does solutions if the wrong person picks it up. I am sure that Eric would love someone doing this with his images.
