PhotosBlender versions

v2.0
• New : Background color can now be 'clear' (ie transparent color) using new 'Clear' option in Preferences. Consequently blank transparent images can be inserted with the "Insert Color" button.
• Image inset is now applied to each image as well as the final blend.
• Bug fix : Square blends had their orientation flipped.
Previous updates:
• Updated with a new blending mechanism for faster better results.
• A new option has been added to the Preferences window for blending labelled 'Inset By Cropping'
If this option is NOT selected then images will be inset by scaling them down to reveal the background color rather than by cropping them. Inset by cropping is the default.
This is useful if you want to inset the images to reveal a background color without trimming any of the images.
• New blending options:
Blend 'left to right' now has a complimentary blend 'right to left'
Blend 'bottom to top' now has a complimentary blend 'top to bottom'
• Fixed an issue where some types of images were not blended at the right resolution, leading to low resolution output.

v1.0 [Jul 16, 2012]
• Added a new option to Preferences named "Crop Result", set to OFF by default, that will trim off artifacts of blending. When blending images whose height or width differ from each other the result will contain "black filler" regions. Cropping will trim the result to remove these black regions.
