This article was originally published on January 5, 2009 at Pulsar Engine.
It has been updated to employ the conventions we use in Sauce instead of the ones I had previously used in Pulsar — aside from that, the content remains unchanged. This article still reflects my views and code.
I have compiled a listing of resources I used while implementing my Image library. This will be updated as things progress.
