Installing ImageMagick

DonLand:
So how do I go about installing ImageMagick on my server. I've installed the wp ImageMagick engine plug in but the image processor is still using GD Library. I assume there may be something I need to install via my cPanel.

Here's the instructions on how to install ImageMagick on your server:

DonLand:
Thanks for the reply but I need some more basic info, like where do I get to the command line to even use the script. This is on a remote server that I have both cPanel and FTP access to.

Also how do I know if I need PHP bindings or Perl bindings etc. I am not a programmer or even IT guy, just a photographer. Thanks!

DonLand:
Ok, my hosting company says ImageMagick is installed, running and available to use at /usr/bin/convert and /usr/bin/mogrify

SymbioStock says it is using GD Library

The hosting company said to contact the Theme builder.

Sigh....

Leo or anyone have any ideas?

DonLand:
Slowly getting there. In SymbioStock the ImageMagick Engine plug in is enabled by command line engine at: /usr/bin/ and I get the green checkmark, but GD Library is still used on the process images page.

My server company states the following:

ImageMagick allows you to dynamically create and edit images on the server.  ImageMagick is usually run from the command line, but since command line access is not available on XXXXXX servers, the commands can be ran through cron jobs or PHP scripts instead. ImageMagick programs are located in:

/usr/bin/convert
/usr/bin/mogrify

In Symbiostock if I click on the ImageMagick dropdown menu and pick on Imagick PHP module I get a red x with it saying the Imagick php module not found.

Ideas?
