Thanks Tom I'll see about updating it - but probably wont be able to. I just wonder why cron isn't working - when the command line is.
I've looked in the man pages for Imagemagick and cron and can't see where I'm going wrong. I'm running convert from the full path. I have read about someone using gnome-screengrab (or something like that) as an alternative - they screen grabbed xwindow 0 image to home direectory then cron'd ftp upload.
