by vrossign
To do this, it needs to have access to the individual pixels of the images it's operating on -- which is why for jQSlickWrap to work, you need to have a browser that supports HTML 5's new canvas element.
Here's an overview of the algorithm:
1. If necessary, pre-load the image.
2. Determine the CSS styles for the image (float and padding).
3. Create a canvas element and set its dimensions to the size of the image plus its padding.
4. Draw the image onto the canvas in the top-left location.
5. Figure out the "background" color of the image by examining the pixel data at the top-left corner of the image.
6. Fill the canvas with this background color.
