I have to create an image, which is an overlay texture made up of a white image with some transparency to give it the appearance of a rubber stamp. For reference see the image "stamp_overlay.png" in the video http://railscasts.com/episodes/374-image-manipulation .

This is what i did:
and then But how do I give a rubber stamp effect?


I am pretty much new to ImageMagick. Any help is highly solicited. Thanks

As you see in the video, convert needs an input and an output. Your second command has no output.

That's a useful video, but it's incomplete because the instructor does not say how to create the stamp_overlay1.png. That file came out of nowhere. Anyone else encountering this thread will want to see this thread:

That includes how to make ImageMagick do the work to derive the rubber stamp effect.
