I know that this is an open feature request but you might want to check out wideimage. It is open source and free to use in commercial products. It can write back to disk or do it on the fly in a viewer.

It has several other useful features as well:
Resize
Crop
Merge (watermark)
Output to browser
Writing a text with a shadow

requires PHP 5.2+ with GD2 extension

Hi Kitsguru,

I'm not a big fan of the idea of mixing CMSB with image manipulation, and prefer using either the free on line editor, Pixlr pixlr.com, or Photoshop, and then involving CMSB after the image is in it's final form, but this is an interesting project.

Glad you came across it.
