if you know how many pixels you need in total you could use -extent with appropriate -gravity and -background setings Anthony Thyssen ( System Programmer ) <[email protected]> -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "In the beginning, the Giver of Data (GOD) generated silicon and carbon, and the system without architecture, and un-initialized, and randomness was upon the arrangement of the matrix...
