This worked wonders. Thank you!!!

Hello GeeMack,
Thanks for your response! I actually just read another response asking for version and should have posted.

I'm using:
ImageMagick 6.9.7-4 Q16 x86_64 20170114

I'll give this a shot as early as tonight and will report. Thanks again!!

Hello ImageMagick gurus, I'm preparing textures for a 3D model and need to add a margin of repeated pixels around the edges. This will prevent odd seams at the edges of my model UV maps, adding a bit of margin there as well. The image is 4054 pixels wide/high and want to resize to 4096, with the ...

Cool. I'll look it up. Thanks for your responses! === On a side note, I did make an updated email image in a new "Invite a Friend!" feature here: http://www.scifisprings.com/invite.php Feel free to try it out. Feedback is welcome. Man, now I have so many ideas to make future stuff even cooler with ...

Hello Anthony, Thanks for the insightful example. Am I correct in that the image is still being written to the hard drive then read in the second part of your command, or is it being held in memory and only writing result.png? Is there a time/processor savings writing it in a command like this, or ...

SUCCESS! Thanks for your feedback Bonzo! http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8457/8052408877_10d5ca6176_b.jpg convert -background transparent -size 187x37 -fill '#022949' -font Comic_Book2.ttf -gravity center label:"ImageMagick," temp.png composite temp.png -gravity northwest -geometry +158+30 ...

Bonzo,
That may be just the tip I need. I'll respond later this evening with what I piece together if it works.

Thanks!!

Hello, I've become quite fond of ImageMagick through PHP's "Imagick" interface/wrapper. However, my shared hosting account where I'll be generating some fun dynamic email headers does not support it. It DOES support direct "convert" command line calls (who would have thought?). Could I trouble ...

Thanks a ton for the excellent feedback. I think I have what I need for quick graphics added to ECE images. On a side note, I'm also getting into rendering ECE images from Blender and panorama stitching software, great for working more at the source of it all. Using ImageMagick's barrel effect still ...

Sorry to bring this old post back to life. I forgot to share the success of this experiment. A live sun background is now being featured at: http://www.spacefoundation.org At the moment I don't recall all the specific details, but the secret sauce was using -clut, combined with some cropping and an ...

Quality output comes with time. :) I'm not too concerned about the speed of rendering. I'll be sure to experiment with the options you suggested. Today I'm re-familiarizing myself with ImageMagick in general, getting some script helpers built and a new virtual sphere set up on my Mac. Random thought ...

Nice! Thanks for the super fast and super helpful reply. I'll definitely take a look at the barrel distortion first and that should cover what I need. It also sparked some additional fun ideas to try with multiple images on the same map (e.g. logo visible from multiple sides, video playing in ...

Hello, I work as part of the Space Foundation and we're getting a really cool new educational tool: Science on a Sphere (SOS): http://www.christopherstevens.cc/blog/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/scienceOnASphere.jpg Image Credit: NASA / GSFC: NASA gave a special Science On a Sphere (SOS ...

Yeah it's a pretty dark blue (#001427), but do calibrate your monitor. The world of color awaits!
