[Image-SIG] PIL resize with aspect ratio?

[Count László de Almásy]

I'm actually using resize() instead of thumbnail() in the code I'm writing,
but I think the idea is the same, right?

I'm color blind, so it's not as easy for me as most to distinguish such
fine details by eye, but I think I'll use ANTIALIAS.
