Simple command to convert a large number of images into jpeg-format. Will delete originals after conversion.

To resize photos without changing exif datas, pretty cool for gps tagging.

(Require ImageMagick)

mogrify -geometry 800x600 *.jpg

-geometry (preserves values of height and width given, and aspect ratio).

WARNING: While 'resize' creates resized copies of original files, 'mogrify' works on the original files, replacing them. It will overwrite the source files, use with caution, and backup regularly.

mogrify -transparent white image*.png

mogrify can be used like convert. The difference is that mogrify overwrites files:

Of course, other source colors can be used as well.

for File in *.jpg; do mogrify -resize 1024 -quality 96 $File; done
mogrify -resize 1024 *.jpg

This command requires the imagemagick libraries and will resize all files with the .jpg extension to a width of 1024 pixels and will keep the same proportions as the original image.

mogrify -trim *png

That should be a short as it can get.

mogrify -crop <width>x<height>+<X-offset>+<Y-offset> *.png
for a in `ls`; do echo $a && convert $a -resize <Width>x<Height> $a; done

Resizes all images in the curent directory to x resolution.

It is better than `mogrify -resize *.jpg` because of independence from extension of image (e.g. .jpg and .JPG) (:

for file in *.png; do mogrify -trim "$file"; done
mogrify -resize 600x800! *.jpg

-To preserve aspect ratio remove !

mogrify -colorspace Gray -rotate '-90>' -resize 600x800 -dither FloydSteinberg -colors 16 -format png *

-dither FloydSteinberg produces a more uniform dither than the default.

Imagemagick library is used. If image format is not JPEG, the "quality" option should not be issued.

mogrify -modulate 100,100,70 ../../icons/32x32/*.png
