Having been in a classroom full of liberal arts students attempting to calculate the resizing of a photo, I am not surprised that the books and articles missed the 10'1" option.
Example of the resizing problem: you have a photo that is 4" wide and 3" tall. You want to fit it in a column that is 2" wide. How tall would the resized photo be? Yes, this was beyond many of the undergrads, even armed with calculators. Being an ass, I started bringing a slide rule to class to do the ones I couldn't figure in my head or on paper. (I never used it.)
Anyway, it looks really nice. It should be useful.
