supporting integer images is a must IMO. 2011/4/19 Stéfan van der Walt <stefan@sun.ac.za>

Looking at this further, I am not happy with the result of either scikits.image or scipy.ndimage:

Compare this, e.g., to the wikipedia page here:
Apparently, neither of these routines like integer images as inputs (should be mentioned in the docs). Here's the output for float images:

Looking at that wikipedia page, it might be easy to add some of the other methods that are less sensitive to direction--we only need to update the masks.
