If you are interested to see where Joa Ebert and me have taken our seam carving project you should head over to the creationonthefly.com blog. There are some screenshots and infos about Woodpecker, a smart image resizing tool we built with Flex using the Aviary framework.

Starting from our original sketch we have completely rewritten the code and optimized it once more. There are some neat new functions in there - for example is it possible to mark areas for deletion or protection and we support enlarging images now, too. And we support various methods of energy map cretion, seam finding and carving methods, since as we found out during out research, there is definitely not "one size fits them all" in this discipline.

If you happen to be attending MAX Chicago you can get a personal demo.
