Hmmm,
Here's my command: convert {$file} -filter Lanczos -quality 50% -resize
'{$browser[1]}x{$browser[2]}>^' '{$file_generated}' which accords with what
you've suggested.
My requested image size is 1024x768 and imagemagick is pumping out 1900x1200
for each image I try. You can play with it dynamically here:
http://dev.intelligent - creatures.com/backgrounds/get/1097/1024/768
Remove the " - " in the domain address. The last two slashes in the
address represent the width and the height. The first one after get is just
the image ID.
I'm baffled. :-/
