You could try asking this in comp.graphics.algorithms. The question is easily made non-Python-specific, just say you have a function in a library that does this: Transform each point {x,y} in an image into a new point {x1,y1} where {x1,y1} = {(ax + by + c)/(gx + hy + 1), (dx + ey + f)/(gx + hy + 1)} then ask how to choose the params a to h to achieve the effect illustrated on http://seanberry.com/perspective.png. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
