I too back your request for Bitmap manipulation in SilverLight 1.1. ..... I have a swag of desktop applications that I would love to port over to SilverLight that does image manipulation (like thumb generation, image manipulation & saving etc). I've raised this in the silverlight.net forums too..
I really hope they listen! Ps. I somehow think it may not be possible in terms of performance and browser security but I'll let the silverlight guru's tell me that!

The classes you see in the ActionScript 3 version uses BitmapAPI , something we don't have inside Silverlight - yet (I am lobbying hard for this feature though). The Bitmap API allows developers the ability to define a rectangle region within an image/embedded asset and simply manipulate the pixels within that region, in that it can do a scan pixel by pixel and based on color algorithms can adhere to the formula you provided. -- Scott Barnes (Developer Evangelist) Microsoft Pty <http://www.microsoft.com/australia> | Blog: http://blogs.msdn.com/msmossyblog <http://blogs.msdn.com/msmossyblog> | Office: 7-3218-7030 | Mobile: 0439-072-184 (New!)

I've just discovered an ActionScript 3 implementation ( http://www.zeropointnine.com/blog/seam-carving-in-as3-with-source <http://www.zeropointnine.com/blog/seam-carving-in-as3-with-source> ). Any comments on the feasibility of porting this to SilverLight. I've been meaning to get into Silverlight and this might be an interesting 'starting' project.
