Have a look at RMagick:

http://rmagick.rubyforge.org/

I use it for all my automated image manipulations.

Awesome! Will I be able to use this on a Ruby supporting server such as
site5 or hostmonster?


thanks!

MiniMagick (http://rubyforge.org/projects/mini-magick/) may be a
better fit for a shared hosting environment (less chance of getting
your application killed for memory usage). It's just a wrapper to the
ImageMagick mogrify tool.

I wrote a really simple script for doing just that, using RMagick.
Check it
out if you'd like:

cool! I still want to write my own program, but seeing yours is helpful!

This looks good. So I just install the .gem and I'm good to go? how do I
do that?
