How to "smart resize" a displayed image to original aspect ratio

I have an application in which end-users can size and position images in a designer. Since the spec calls for the image to be "stretched" to the containing control, the end user can end up with an awkwardly stretched image.

Translating X,Y Coordinate

Strategies for Handling Multiple Screen Resolutions and Aspect Ratios in Web Development

Handling different screen resolutions for background images in Android?

My Android app (a text-based games) uses background images a lot in order to provide a better visual ambience.
