A decoder may perform a method of decompressing images that include texture features that are not aligned with an axis of the image being compressed. In some example implementation, the method may include receiving a block of geometrically transformed pixel values and performing an inverse geometric transformation on the block of geometrically transformed pixel values to generate a first block of pixel values. The geometrically transformed pixel values represent texture features of an image that are non-parallel with a vertical axis or a horizontal axis of the image and the first block of pixel values being one of a plurality of blocks of the image. The example method may further include generating at least a portion of the image based on the first block of pixel values.
