Ouch. Oh well, I guess I should have made my intentions clear from the 
beginning. I'm working on a little pet project which is a simple 
program for cropping images. The program is aimed at people who does 
not want to spend too much time on photography: My mom, dad and their 
vacation photos.

I thought that it would be interesting to introduce an overlay like the 
one showed on the page on about.com, but I fear that if I give the 
choice of the Rule of Thirds vs. the Golden Section, people will send 
emails asking which one to use.

I'm leaning towards the Golden Section, but that might be because I've 
known that one the longest.
