In this way you can force for example a square "Intro Image" for your articles that will be resized to 500 pixels. For the "Full Image" field of articles you can setup a profile that resizes images to 1000 pixels width with an aspect ratio of 16:9. Or any other ratio and size you prefer! Have a look at the screenshots below for an impression of the new profiles feature.
