photo effect - Warholize - line art

[myspacee]

hello,
sorry for biazzarre post, but is only for fun
(apologize, is 1st day of year...)

Find nice imagemagick use :
Warholize http://www.vincent-richard.net/blog/index.php/2007/05/24/6-effet-andy-warhol
but script is for linux only, is possible to have counterpart for windows ?

and an effect that i ask only if is replicable with IM, line art as found:
http://fotofamilymemories.com/category/phototechnique/

thank you for your attention,

m.

[anthony]

The technique from what I can see uses GIMP which is available both in linux and in windows!

It is not automatic, and requires input from the user to get right for each photo involved.

IM can do the steps specified but the steps will be slightly different for each photo involved.

Cute effect. Here's one with many cat photos.

It extracts the JPEG images 'comment'. probably storing it in some variable so it can later draw/annotate it onto the resulting image.

thank you for reply, now reading...

anyone can help to adjust linux script to obtain working example for windows geeks ?

This part is the main problem, as you noted:

HISTO=`convert "$TEMP_FILE" histogram:- | identify -format %c - | grep -vre "black\|white"`


As far as I know, Windows cannot do anything remotely like it. The back-quotes, for instance, are just a fantasy for Windows programmers, I believe. And then redirection of an image via standard input and output --- Windows would choke on it. (Someobody correct me if I am wrong!)

But a batch file is doable, I'l bet, with loads of work. I suspect you need to write the histogram to a separate file and then use identify on that if you want to replicate the rest of your process.

But I also suspect that there is a much easier way to achieve a similar effect without resorting to the histogram. Something along these lines:

Code: Select all

convert ( warhol-in.jpg -colorspace gray -colors 3 ) ( -size 3x1 xc:white -fill red -draw "color 0,0 point" -fill green -draw "color 1,0 point" -fill blue -draw "color 2,0 point" ) -interpolate integer -clut  cat.gif

Most of that is just to get the three colors into a 3-pixel file that can them be used for color replacement using -clut, and there is surely a more elegant way to create a 3-pixel file.

Right you are -unique-colors

This just creates a image 1 pixel high, and N pixels long where N is the number of colors in the image.
Extracting Image Colors
http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/quantize/#extract

However the order of the colors are undefined as it depends on the oct-tree representation of the color space used by Colro Quantization. Basically the color reduction data handling.

[rmabry]

Right you are -unique-colors

But here we want to choose the colors. What's the nicest way to get a 3x1 image cosisting of purple, then white, then #2277ff?

Code: Select all

 convert  xc:purple  xc:white  xc:'#2277ff' -append  3_colors.png

[rmabry]

Ha! Super slick. So -size defaults to 1x1, not bad. The earlier command is now much faster:

Code: Select all

convert ( warhol-in.jpg -colorspace gray -colors 3 ) ( xc:purple xc:"#123456" xc:yellow  -append ) -interpolate bicubic -clut  cat.gif

That's for Windows only, of course --- no escapes of parentheses. No quotes on the # needed in Windows, either, but it doesn't hurt.

Thanks, Anthony.

[anthony]

You can also use ^ to continue onto the next line to make it look neater and seperate actions by lines

Code: Select all

convert ( warhol-in.jpg -colorspace gray -colors 3 ) ^
        ( xc:purple xc:"#123456" xc:yellow  -append ) ^
        -interpolate bicubic -clut  cat.gif

PS: the first set of parenthesis is not needed as there are no image in memory yet, but it don't hurt either

The comments so far on this warhol script have asked how to convert it to windows... anyone have an idea why these problems came up in Cygwin for windows?

Below is the rough version of how I got a Warhol style image.

Question, though: could anyone point me to a guide on combining this many commands in windows command prompt? Or, put another way, is it possible to create and manipulate four seperate images within the same command? I'm hoping to do batch processing with this.
