It works wonders. I have been using the "Pillow" for a while now as my current project deals with computer vision and image processing. It has helped me alot and i would like to contribute to its development and get it more recognition. There are libraries like opencv which are more famous due its portability on different platforms. I feel that if a proper documentation in form a book with examples are provided to a budding user then more and more programmers will be attracted to this very good library. I was wondering if the "Pillow" is going to provide mentor-ship for a GSOC project. It would be very well recognized platform to showcase the power of image processing through python. I eagerly await your response and views about my idea. Regards, Prashant -## Speed +## Performance Investigate speeding up core operations by vectorizing core functionality. This could be a combination of autovectorization in the compiler, manual recoding of tight loops in vector form, or writing kernels for OpenCL.
