This is a great resource, however some of the options are not working.  
-alpha transparent is not recognized - same result on my desktop as on 
the webhost server.

% convert thumbnail.gif -border 2 -alpha transparent \
-background none -fill white -stroke none -strokewidth 0 \
-draw "@rounded_corner.mvg" rounded_corner_mask.png
convert: UnrecognizedAlphaChannelType `transparent'.

This is an option to ImageMagick's convert which I copied right off 
their example page. http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/thumbnails/#rounded
It is about 3/4 down under the heading "Border with Rounded Corner".

When I did a google on the error message it says that an upgrade is in 
order.

syncsync:~> identify -version
Version: ImageMagick 6.3.7 06/04/09 Q16 http://www.imagemagick.org
Copyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2008 ImageMagick Studio LLC

The web page says the examples were generated with Examples Generated 
with: IM v6.5.4-6 2009-07-30.  I just used the  package manager 
(synaptics) to upgrade and it still returns the same version. I'm not a 
sys admin type. What do I need to do (in user friendly terms) to get 
alpha transparent working?
