Piczard - .NET Image Manipulation Library
###  Image Upload  ###

This package includes SimpleImageUpload, an advanced image upload
user control with a powerful and intuitive image manipulation interface.

<ccPiczardUC:SimpleImageUpload runat="server" />

SimpleImageUpload user control allows the final user to:

- Upload an image to the server
- Interactively crop, resize, rotate/flip and color adjust the uploaded image (WYSIWYG) 
- Automatically apply post-processing filters (e.g.: image resize + watermark)
- View a preview of the uploaded image
- Edit a previously uploaded image maintaining the image parameters selected in the past (crop coordinates, resize factor, rotation angle, color adjustments, etc.. )
 
Since this control is provided as ASCX, the full source code is available.
You are free to change/edit it according to your needs.

*********
SimpleImageUpload.ascx does not require Ajax.
However, since it can perform some page postbacks, for optimal use it is suggested to insert it within an UpdatePanel.

Please note that the ASCX control is part of "Web Site" projects.
If you want to use it in a "Web Application" project you need to convert the control files.
From within Microsoft Visual Studio open your "Web Application" project.
In the Solution Explorer right-click the folder that contains the ASCX control and then click Convert to Web Application.

For more information about "Web Site" and "Web Application" projects please see:
