Dear Magnolians

Every little PHP CMS features good automatic image scaling. Magnolia CE however only has the <cmsu:scaledImage /> tag which only works for images stored in the website repository.

We've come up with some home brewed stuff to fill the gap because this is definitely a CE feature, but our solutions so far have all had their problems. Now before I start over and "reinvent the wheel" I just wanted to check with you if there is a decent image module out there that could be shared. From our experiences it would have to have the following features:

- DMS based
- Configurable max. image size
- Good quality downscaling
        - we never need upscaling
        - speed is less of an issue than quality
        - maybe configurable sharpening would be nice too
- Smart management of downscaled versions of an image
        - Reuse of already scaled versions if the size fits
- Best if stored in a subnode of the node which contains the original image so that when the original image is being replaced also the different size versions are deleted

I guess if no such module is available I'll start to re-factor our code. But if I don't have to...
