Earlier this month I was added to the Cropper project (thanks Jeffrey). After working through most of the easier work items I felt it would be a good time to issue a new release. I'm looking forward to digging in to those tougher issues and implementing the requested features. So go give it a try and feel free to provide some feedback.

A week ago I was staying up late looking through CodePlex. I noticed that Cropper had a few outstanding issues. Looking through the code and running an instance in the debugger I was able to get a handle for what would be required for some of the simpler issues. I was able to resolve these and upload the patches. I had never submitted code to an OSS project before and it felt really good taking unfamiliar code, working through it, and resolving the problems. Of course I woke up the next day realizing that I had missed a few scenarios and resubmit my patches but I also upload an addition feature.
