I went to your web page and read up on you. ;) Now that I've looked at
it, I agree, your viewer is not a standard viewer so I retract my other
comments. If you do have to manipulate pixels then the consensus is that
Rev is too slow for larger images but okay for thumbnails and icons,
etc. We had a thread about this in May:

Well, generally we calculate the dimensions before we set the image
size. ;) Then it works okay.

Images displayed at their native sizes don't distort; maybe I'm not
understanding something.

Or we can wait until you get so enthusiastic about Rev that you forget
what the learning curve was like. ;)
