PerpetualBeta/Image-Director

Image Director is a fast, versatile, non-destructive library for handling common imaging tasks on a dynamic website. Multiple operations can be requested in a single pass. The library can handle local or remote images and has an integrated caching mechanism for the processed versions of both. Image Director is alpha channel aware: images can rendered against a configurable background colour, including a transparent one. Image Director also supports "chaining" - providing a means to pipe the images it renders on to other processes for further modification. The source image is always preserved in its original form, all Image Director operations are performed on duplicates. The Image Director library can be used with any image request, in HTML, JavaScript, CSS...
