Hiring you as an Expert

Looking to hire a graphic expert - with specific high expertise with ImageMagick to help & work with our programmer.

We have & are developing a shirt design site - http://www.worldwide-usa.com/designstudio/.
Below are 3 of many issues to solve;

1) antialiasing issues - when we load a ping image from our library it may look like 6 colors to us - however when we open up a color swap window - it reads it as 11 colors (sometimes 20 or 30 colors).
Currently we are using the "Convert" command with Dither= MapColortable.gif
vs Fuzz Command. (if you understand the pro's & con's of these commands - you are our guy)

2) we would like to allow our customers to upload their art in just about any format - and be able to work with it.

3) Flatten Image & count transparent pixels in a given dimension (for instance 3x5" left chest embroidery). Once the customer is set with their design (for instance a image with a text overlapping)

Can you provide more details and especially a contact email?

1) there is no dither=MapColortable.gif option! Do you mean -map Mapcolortable.gif (or -remap). What is a color swap window?

2) art in any format? does that mean digital image format such as jpg, png, gif, tiff or something else

3) dont' understand "given dimension (for instance 3x5" left chest embroidery)"

Is your server Unix or Windows?

I script in bash shell script. Do you need scripting help or just consulting on IM?

Are you available for a GoToMeeting - meeting tomorrow morning 10.00 am USA central time?

At that time my programmer will be available & we can explain in better detail what we are talking about and what we have already done.

By the way what is your name & where are you located?

You can call me at any hour on my cell phone 1-314-537-6022.

Sorry, I don't have GoToMeeting.

I do not have Skype.

I am on the West Coast in Sunnyvale, CA

A 10 AM PDT would be better for me via conference telephone or just by email.

GoToMeeting is a service I and others use to bring you in remotely to view my screen with me.
It is really simple.
We can use reqular telephone for audio.
I will call you & email you at that time.
