Known Problems / Issues

Multimatic performs resizing and rotation: large images take longer to process than smaller images.
Multimatic isn't clever about the order it performs resizes, rotates, and crops. Better image quality could be achieved if this were fixed.
Cropping to remove blank space after rotating is currently done poorly.
There are still some pretty hacky bits of code in there, so it needs a cleanup.
