Thanks for your efforts but sorry, the result is still not what is desired. If you compare to the image I posted above, you can see that in the result of your command the three columns aren't touching each other (in the bottom right which contains the widest elements). Anyhow, if there is no way to ...

I want the size of each tile to be that of the biggest image in its row/column, not the entire grid. See:

Thanks for your reply. Is there some way to use convert for this then?

I have nine squares of varying sizes generated by:
colors=("" 4d2600 590000 730055 2c0059 000080 004d00 638000 ffaa00 323232)
for x in {1..9} ; do
convert -size $((40 + x * 10))x$((40 + x * 10)) xc:"#${colors[$x]}" $x.png

Hello. I want to make the equivalent of the white/blue starburst seen at the bottom of the example page http://imagemagick.org/Usage/advanced/index.html#radial_flares but with two conditions:

the background must be transparent and not black unlike in the example
as seen here the square border ...

Hi thanks for your reply snibgo.

I found out that the problem was that I was using sh and not bash in my script. sh (which is symlinked to dash on my Ubuntu system) does not recognize the &> operator to redirect both stderr and stdout. I figured this out at unix.stackexchange . If I change the ...

Hello. I tried writing something similar to the following minimal testcase to test using identify if a file (if it exists) is a valid image or not, and if yes, to move it to a particular location:


#! /bin/sh
ifile=input.jpg
identify $ifile &> /dev/null && {
echo "DEBUG: moving the jpg"
mv -v ...
