Close but in your example newWidths is an array of numbers. In your case
you'll want a way to extract the largest width from the array and then use
that value to animate the li width. Maybe something like this.
var width = $('li.hello img').widths().sort().revers()[0];
$('li.hello').animate({ width: width }, 'slow');
Thanks for a nice "real-world" example. :)
In testing this I found a bug and created a new release 1.0.1.
