How To install ImageMagick from source on centos 7

To install ImageMagick from source on centos 7

ImageMagick is a simple open source software suited for any image manipulation, which is used for editing, converting, creating, displaying image files. It can read and also write many image files like JPEG, GIF, PNG, TIFF and Photo CD image formats. It can be used for thumbnail and captcha creation. ImageMagick includes command line options for generating transparent and animated gif image formats and also features like sharpen, resize, rotate and adding special effects to an image. This video covers the method to install ImageMagick from source on CentOS 7

 

Installing ImageMagick

First make sure you download a package of imagick by making use of the following command.  

[root@linuxhelp11 ~]# wget https://www.imagemagick.org/download/ImageMagick.tar.gz

FAQ
Q
How can I add/remove users to my Friends or Foes list?
A
You can add users to your list in two ways. Within each user’s profile, there is a link to add them to either your Friend or Foe list. Alternatively, from your User Control Panel, you can directly add users by entering their member name. You may also remove users from your list using the same page.
Q
What are my Friends and Foes lists in ImageMagick?
A
You can use these lists to organise other members of the board. Members added to your friends list will be listed within your User Control Panel for quick access to see their online status and to send them private messages. Subject to template support, posts from these users may also be highlighted. If you add a user to your foes list, any posts they make will be hidden by default.
Q
How to access the official link for the ImageMagick?
A
For accessing the official link for the ImageMagick, use the following link as given below "https://www.linuxhelp.com/how-to-install-and-use-graphicsmagick-to-edit-images-cli/"
Q
How do I become a usergroup leader in ImageMagick?
A
A usergroup leader is usually assigned when user groups are initially created by a board administrator. If you are interested in creating a usergroup, your first point of contact should be an administrator; try sending a private message.
Q
Why do some usergroups appear in a different color in ImageMagick?
A
It is possible for the board administrator to assign a color to the members of a usergroup to make it easy to identify the members of this group.
