In fact, I played around with this feature in the GIMP this weekend (there it is called “liquid resizing”), and while it’s not as fun as Photoshop’s feature because it doesn’t update the picture on the fly, it works extremely well, especially when protecting certain areas of a picture and shrinking others, in order to put emphasis on, for example, the person in the portrait.
