good one! I'm no unix guru but escape the parentheses worked!

Thank you!

I tried both, even copied and pasted in the Code: Select all ... still error -bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('

I removed the () because I was getting this error;

I added the -gravity center command and it works! However, I'm getting duplicates;

Thank you.

I tried -resize 200x200 but it does not seem to pick the shortest side - I end up with something like 156x200.

Hi,

I'm new to ImageMagick and little confused how to do the following to a batch of images in a folder.

1. the images in the folder are various widths and heights (eg. 900x1759, 1280x400, etc)
2. re-size the images to 200px at the shortest dimension (either width or height)
3. crop the images in ...
