[...] My goal was to be able to convert a large image into a smaller one and have it look decent. I tried a few different approaches directly in PHP before I decided to see just how hard it was to do with a command line tool.

I'm using version 6.2.7 of ImageMagick. I just tried to cut and paste the gel examples and it looks like in firefox some of the values are being converted to binary. I'm going to add a link to all the examples in one script.

Tried using the gel technique for the buttons on my web site http://www.showerinabox.com/. For example the "Start Now" button on the home page. However the second step in your gel button example no longer works with recent versions of imagemagick. But luckily it still looks ok with that step omitted. What version of imagemagick are you using?
