Component to upload multiple images with client side crop

Question

I'm looking a quick way to add an (multi) image unloader with client side crop to an ASP.NET MVC site and for some reason the search seems to be much more complicated than I thought :(

• upload image (can be via form post or custom, just has to work with ASP.NET)
• custom crop possibility before upload
• (preferred) multiple images at once

It doesn't matter if js/jquery, silverlight or flash is used , it just has to work, its an internal application and I can force people to have the necessary plugins installed.

Basically this is exactly what I want:
http://i-load.radactive.com/

But they are out of business and it seems impossible to get a license :(

**UPDATE**
This should be an all in one solution, I currently do not have the time to figure out how to connect multiple components.

I'm willing to purchase a component that does this, but I simply can't find one, which I find rather strange.

Answer 1

An internal application where you are comfortable with ASP.NET then Silverlight would be the good direction to look in.

There is free multiple file uploader which is designed to work with an ASP.NET server end here: http://silverlightuploader.codeplex.com/

There are number of ways to manipulate an image in Silverlight, either natively or with other Silverlight tools such as: http://writeablebitmapex.codeplex.com/

Finally you can re-encode images to common formats such as PNG with: http://imagetools.codeplex.com/

Whether you could actually combine these as is to acheive your goals would be another matter.
