Carrierwave can use either RMagicK or MiniMagicK (default). To change resize option the correct gem must be used (specified in Gemfile) and change included setting for Carrierwave in file_uploader.rb Can be installed from: http://www.imagemagick.org Looking into that file: # Include RMagick or ImageScience support # include CarrierWave::RMagick # include CarrierWave::ImageScience include CarrierWave::MiniMagick Did you change these default settings? Looking into the Gemfile: https://github.com/espen/balder/blob/master/Gemfile ... # -- Photo resizing # MiniMagick gem "mini_magick" # ImageMagick: #gem "rmagick", :require => 'RMagick' # FreeImage: #gem "RubyInline" #gem "image_science", :git => 'git://github.com/perezd/image_science.git' So, probably, if you want to activate rmagick for CarrierWave, you should uncomment the line with "rmagick" and rerun `bundle install` after that. But, I would first check why the upload functionality does not work with the default mini_magick that _is_ most probably installed. But then again ... this file resources/DummyHTML/css/joshuaclayton-blueprint-css-05312a805eca539ab85e435cfd94bdedfd12ab2e/lib/blueprint/grid_builder.rb also tries to require 'rmagick' and install the gem 'rmagick'...
