1. A method for positioning an adjustable image relative to a cutout region within a foreground image, comprising:
identifying a zone of interest in the adjustable image, the adjustable image having an aspect ratio; and
determining a translation parameter and a scaling parameter such that upon translating and scaling the adjustable image, a portion of the zone of interest appears within the cutout region while maintaining the aspect ratio of the adjustable image.
2. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the portion of the zone of interest is constrained so that the cutout region remains substantially within the extent of the adjustable image.
3. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the identifying comprises manually identifying the zone of interest.
4. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the identifying comprises automatically identifying the zone of interest.
5. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the identifying is based at least in part on information relating to how the adjustable image was positioned within a previous cutout region.
6. A system for positioning an adjustable image relative to a cutout region within a foreground image, comprising:
a zone of interest in the adjustable image; and
an image processing system to determine an effective translation and scaling parameters such that upon translating and scaling the adjustable image accordingly a portion of the zone of interest is to appear substantially within the cutout region while maintaining the aspect ratio of the adjustable image.
7. A system according to claim 6 , wherein the portion of the zone of interest is to be constrained so that the cutout region remains substantially within the extent of the adjustable image.
8. A system according to claim 6 , wherein the editable image is to be positioned relative to a previous cutout region, and wherein the zone of interest is to be determined from at least a portion of the editable image that was contained within the previous cutout region.
