I spend two hours compiling ImageMagick to make the new BetterFileUploader 2.0 plugin works. Finally we make it work with the help of Sadri. The problem that Image::Magick require the latest ImageMagick installed, while in rpm list I have an old version only. Anyway now you can enjoy uploading and resizing images on phpmagazine.net, note that we’ll start accepting new members very soon. Currently I’m testing the wheeljack-revision of Movable Type which introduce a feature that I was looking for since long time which is cloning blogs in addition to the advanced user permissions system.

I still have a long list of todos for our publishing platform, those who have access on the wiki can check (or contact me for pass - members only). Trying to get ready for next year, so we can relaunch the network with lot of great new services, one of them is paid ! That’s lot of good news that I don’t want to announce now, that was just a glimpse.

    2 hours to compile ImageMagick?
    I have just done it on a poor machine and it took 20 minutes.
    What’s wrong?
    By the way, have a look at this book, quite interesting.

    Yes 2 hours to make it work properly with Image::Magick ! libmagick.so.10 have been created in the wrong place, can’t guess it :-)
    I’m not big fan of ImageMagick, I just pick it cause it’s better than GD for generating thumbs.
