jQuery Nivo Slider and images of different size

A couple of days ago, I needed to add a slideshow to a project that I’m currently working on.
When I googled “jQuery Slider”, I found lots and lots of options. I checked some of them out one by one, and one by one I discarded them, because it lacked a feature I wanted or, if it had the feature, it lacked cool animations.
I finally settled up for the Nivo Slider. But it had an issue. It used the images as the current background for the slider, which then meant that the images had to be the same size.
That might be fine if you have someone that crops the images to the required size… But what if you’re doing a project where it’s the end users that are going…
