Hi Rob,

I played around with CFIMAGE for a long time. It works ok, and not that the
OpenBD camp has abandoned the tag, but for most all situations, you would be
better served to install and use ImageMagik. From what I remember, I was
told that development of the tag has been put on the back burner since
ImageMagik was available and it would take a serious amount of work to get
it remotely close to working like Imagemagik.  It seems to be faster, more
accurate, more predictable, and easier to work with once you get the hang of
it.

<http://www.imagemagick.org/script/index.php>I don't think any of the senior
OpenBD developers would disagree (since it was by their counsel I made the
switch).

Here's a sample. IMAGEMAGIK is installed as a .exe on your host system, and
called via CFEXECUTE.

<cfexecute name="c:/convert.exe" arguments="c:/myphotos/test.jpg -resize
110x110 c:/myphotos/test_new.jpg" timeout="120" />

That simply finds a file (test.jpg) on the host system, and applies several
arguments which resize it to 110x110. It then renames it to test_new.jpg
