Well, it works like that: You choose a pic, press somewhere and the mouse 
then jumps to a point so that the insert-rect has the original size of the 
pixmap. So if you press and release the pixmap is inserted in original size. 
Well, seems to be not very intuitive :-), I'll rather change it so that if 
you have a rect smaller than 5, 5 or so that the original size is used, else 
your choosen one.

That's how I implemented it, but doesn't work like that anymore. Will have a 
look.
