texte = I think you can call an applescript from the shell. That might be an easy quick fix. From the shell the script can appear to have the proper privileges. I do think ImageMagick is the better way to go. I use it to make thumbnails of uploaded photos and it works fast. In fact pages where multiple thumbnails are created on the fly load instantly on a test (no load) Linux server. Bill Terry Wilson wrote: > To:
