For us pathetic Americans, a scale in inches would be nice.  And I don't know how large your sample swatches are, but it might be helpful to see a bit more of the fabric in the shot.

If the pictures are all sized the same you could just embed a reusable component like this http://jsfiddle.net/thirdender/kwcug/

Or this may be better http://ruler.hilliuse.com

@mclaincausey Whoa, I just want to take a pic, that scares the crap out of me…..

Yes, can do.  And yes will take a shot from further away too….

Great idea Giles. Perhaps cut out the outer scale.

[Giles]

That's what I was thinking….

Let @shoque worry about that, again, it's a reusable component. It makes your job easier.

So the process would be something like:

I take photo
I edit to a known size
We drop the code around it or something like that and the rulers appear in viewed image?

Like - tomorrow…..

Found your answer.  These guys are done with their ruler…

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You know how I make my penis 9" long?

Fold it in half…..

I think so. The second one is stylesheet based, so you would be able to invoke it on any image. I am not an expert, but I believe it is straightforward, compatible across platforms, and handles units conversion.

See? Units conversion snafus are quite common.

And you people thought legalizing marijuana was a good idea.  Think of the bunnies, dammit.  The poor, innocent bunnies.

If I catch you bumping without a price reduction in a sales thread within a week of the last post, I'll delete the bump. FYI.

Feels good to work for 6 hours on a Sunday morning, then having the whole afternoon to read and drink beer. No work tomorrow.

Status: happy piglet.

It is no help, but: With three boys you have to be able to cope with extreme situations. All the best!

@indigo:
