changing photos to approx 16:9
Wolf
for the most efficient way to change digital images from 1280 x 960 to
approx a 16:9 format.
I understand the cropping technique but it does take much of the image view
away, of course.

You can either keep the width ie 960 OR the new hight, you can't have both
unless you except the distorsions or live with images borders however a
small vertical increse in size is usualy unnoticable.

16:9 is defined by pixel aspect ratio. In PAL the picture size is
720x576 but the pixel aspect ratio is 1,422. So, you have to do a simple
math. Picture width in 16x9 square pixels is 1024 (720 x 1,4222). So
what you do is: You resize your image to 1024 width with constraint
proportions. It´ll give you 1024 x 768. Then you´ll have to crop the
image in height to 576. Now you have 1024 x 576. You now resize the
image WITHOUT constraint proportions to 720 x 576. You can now check the
image with "Image -> Pixel Aspect Ratio" command.
