Use mogrify to modify images on a web server
Authored by: cidion on Aug 07, '03 10:46:25AM
Will this command actually change the size of my pictures? Right now they are all the right dimentions and everything, and I'm a little nervous that what I'm trying to do will make them like...90ox wide or something...or super compressed or something.

Now, i also am having problems finding where morgify is. the Locate Morgify command cannot run because I'm not root.

I've contacted the folks at www.hostforweb.com (my server) but they don't know. decent hosting, but slow support.

Anyone know how to find the morgify command without being root?

Mainly because they are already on the server that I want them to be on, with captions, and the correct order...etc(using Gallery) and... I don't have Image::Magick on my mac.

oh sure, was just an idea to install the imagemagick-package from fink or from www.entropy.ch and then get a backup of the complete "Albums"-folder of ur Gallery to ur local disk for manipulation. may be faster than waiting for ur ISP :) second thought was, its not a bad idea to make manipulations first on a clone of ur livesystem :)

Got it

I didn't have adequite permissions to use the locate command, but a friend of mine at variaprint.com told me about the "whereis" command, and it worked fine...

I can't tell if it fixed the IE6 problem because I don't own a wintel machine.
