High-quality media processing for your blog.

== Description ==

This plugin adds high-quality media processing to your blog. At the plugin's core is [mm, the PHP media library](https://github.com/davidpersson/mm) which is throughly tested and in production use on several media heavy sites. A new settings panel allows you to configure two additional media versions that are generated alongside the built-in WordPress ones. For each version you may select one of the resizing methods, pick the target format and enable additional optimizations.

#### Available resizing methods:

* fit inside - Resizes media proportionally keeping both sides within given dimensions.
* fit outside - Resizes media proportionally keeping _smaller_ side within corresponding dimensions.
* crop - Crops media to provided dimensions.
* zoom & fit - Enlarges media proportionally by factor 2.
* zoom & crop - First crops an area (given by dimensions and enlarged by factor 2) out of the center of the media, then resizes that cropped area to given dimensions.
* fit & crop - First resizes media so that it fills out the given dimensions, then cuts off overlapping parts.

#### Available target formats:

* PNG
* JPEG

#### Available optimizations:

* compress slightly
* strip all metadata
* interlace

#### Requirements

This plugin requires PHP >= 5.3.0, the imagick PHP extension and WordPress >= 3.4.0.

#### Usage

<code>
