[Zope] Need help with ImageMagick or PIL with CMFPhoto for ph oto resize

[Meilicke, Scott]

Have you tried ImageMagick from the command line?  Something like

convert -g 500x500 originalimage.jpg

This will resize originalimage.jpg to be 500 px max high or wide.  It will
maintain the aspect ratio. 

If that works, then zope isn't seeing imagemagick...  I'm not enough of a
linux person to tell you want to do in this case.

Subject: [Zope] Need help with ImageMagick or PIL with CMFPhoto for
photo resize


I am using:

Zope 2.6.1 
Plone 1.0.1
CMF 1.3

I can add a CMFPhotoAlbum as well as a CMFPhoto on my
Plone site.  I want to be 
able to view the photo sized differently than the
Original Size.  I tried to 
install ImageMagick using the rpm for Redhat 9 (i386).
 Since it asked for a 
lot of XFree86 modules, I used the -nodeps option and
it seemed to install just 
fine.  However, I still cannot resize the photos.  I
am a newbie but I am 
learning.  Could you please help me?  

Thanks,
Jim Barbara
