For converting UNIX command line shell IM Commands to PHP equivelents
See Im Examples, API's and Scripting, PHP
http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/api/#php

I specifically recommend you follow the line separation technique
as keeping the 'logical' image processing steps to separate lines
make it a lot easier of you and others to read and understand the command.

My code was to save an image to do what you want try this:

Code: Select all

<?php
$photo = $_GET['p'];
$height  = $_GET['h'];
$width = $_GET['w'];
$cmd = "/usr/local/bin/convert $photo -matte -resize {$width}x{$height} \( +clone -background black -shadow 90x3+15+15 \) +swap -gravity northwest 
-geometry -3-3 -composite -background white -flatten +repage ";
passthru($cmd, $retval);
?>

I am not getting any image outputted from this. Do I need to put in:

Code: Select all

PNG:-";

and:

Code: Select all

header("Content-type: image/jpeg");

somehow? Like the original:

Code: Select all

<?php
$photo = $_GET['p'];
$height  = $_GET['h'];
$width = $_GET['w'];
$cmd = "/usr/local/bin/convert -size {$width}x{$height} $photo -matte -thumbnail {$width}x{$height} PNG:-";
header("Content-type: image/png");
passthru($cmd, $retval);
?>

I also changed the output to a PNG because of the shadow. Thanks again. I can't make heads or tails from those tutorials.
