title: Can image processing, specially cropping, be done with Appcelerator Titanium?
body: <p>I'm evaluating Appcelerator Titanium for a project. The one feature that I'm concerned is that my project will require me to crop images. Using complete image processing would be amazing, but cropping would be the minimum ability I currently need.</p>
  
  <p>I've searched the forums and found out that <a href="https://appcelerator.lighthouseapp.com/projects/25719/tickets/263-image-libraries-jpgpnggifx-awesome-feature" rel="nofollow">there is a enhancement request posted on their bugtracker</a> asking for this particular feature, but no ETA is available at this time.</p>
  
  <p>Is this possible to do it some other way? Anyone tried with success to use the PIL (Python Imaging Library) with Titanium? Any solution with Ruby?</p>
  
  <p>Other approach I was thinking is to bundle some image processing open source executable withing the app itself and call it as a shell command. Is it possible to invoke bundled executable in a cross platform way? (I know this would require multiple executables compiled specifically to each platform, but that's ok)</p>
