My solution:
Good enough?

Hi,

What's the simplest way to get a rectangular gradient like this:



Thanks

My ultimate goal is to blur the part outside the 75% from the center, Ie, the soft blurry outline takes up to 25% of image size. How can I do that? Ok, maybe vignette might not be the perfect tool for it, so I changed the subject. I'm playing with the Virtual Pixels.... You can also blur transparen...

+dither -colors 2 -depth 2 -type bilevel result.gif Perfect! Thanks a lot! PS. Here is how it looks now: http://imagebin.ca/img/o0WlRWV.gif Here is how it is converted: convert Action-Abstract-01.jpg -colorspace gray \( +clone -blur 0x3 \) +swap -compose divide -composite -linear-stretch 5%x0% +dit...

Please forgive my ignorance, we are talking different languages here. Please tell me how to translate about into my 25%.

Thanks

see http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/transform/#vignette and http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/thumbnails/#soft_edges for a little more info and examples. Yes, that's where I found out the vignette usage. The problem is that all above example gives a slim soft edges, whereas I want a much thicker on...

Hi, The online help doesn't give me much info about the vignette usage, http://www.imagemagick.org/script/command-line-options.php?#vignette -vignette radius{xsigma}{+-}x{+-}y{%} soften the edges of the image in vignette style. Is the radius measured from the edge or the center? My ultimate goal is ...

Ok, I found another way, here is the result: http://imagebin.ca/img/kFHJzwO.gif The command is: convert Action-Abstract-01.jpg -colorspace gray \( +clone -blur 0x2 \) +swap -compose divide -composite -linear-stretch 5%x0% photocopy.gif However, I wasn't able to make it of BW color depth of 2, I trie...

Thanks a lot, that's amazing.

If use
I'll get



which size is bigger than the previous one (8345B vs. 7358B).

This is the best that I can get from Action-Abstract-01.jpg,



Anyone can get it better?

Thanks

Actually, I was kinda expecting something even better than this,

well, maybe that's the best I can get so far.

thanks all the same.

I am trying to automate a process by using a Cron job and ImageMagick to adjust a photo at midnight each night. I am using a php script with the exec commands for imagemagick . . . . Since it is only a single "convert" command, would it be better to remove an extra layer by doing it right...

Hi, I coined this term "action abstraction" for not knowing a better phrase to describe what I want to do. I want to remove as much details as possible from images so as just to preserver the "main action". Take a look the following images then you may understand what I'm talking...
