I'm in the process of digitizing some hundreds record covers (either from old vinyl and/or from cd) by rigging my camera and flash on a tripod and shooting all the images one after the other. The tough task, though, is prepare them for my site: 1 - opening each image 2 - crop it as a square (thus eliminating the white background and just keeping the record cover) 3 - Resize the image to a certain size (say 400x400) 4 - slightly sharpen it 5 - save the image adding some prefix (say b_ just to tell it from the original) 6 - Resize the image to a middle size (say 200x200) 7 - slightly sharpen it 8 - save the image adding some prefix (say m_ just to tell it from the others) 9 - Resize the image to a small size (say 75x75) 10 - slightly sharpen it 11 - save the image adding some prefix (say s_ just to tell it from the others)
I guess that such a job could most probably be performed over hundreds of images by running a single batch script at the command line. Am I wrong? Is Gimp the right tool at all, or other tools would better fit? Where could I start to build such a thing? Is there anything the like already made?
