&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;= '''Graphics, Images &amp;amp; Video Creation &amp;amp; Modification, and All Things Related to Visual Graphics of All Kinds''' =&lt;br /&gt;
== '''Image Creation &amp;amp; Editing - 2 Dimensional Graphical Images''' ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== '''Modifying Images from the Command Line''' ===&lt;br /&gt;
There are many very powerful command-line tools available to edit and otherwise modify all types of image file formats, but if I were to have to pick the all-time best, most powerful and useful set of graphical image manipulation tools in my own personal opinion is ImageMagick, with it's super-powerful tool &amp;quot;convert&amp;quot;!  Sure, there are many other similar tools available, but I have yet to find one that supports as many different file formats, and is as fast and efficient as the &amp;quot;convert&amp;quot; command is!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here is an example of a one-liner to convert every .png photo file, commonly the default for most Linux-based graphical tools such as screenshot tools.  This one command will create an identical image file, only in the .jpg(JPEG) file format:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre style=&amp;quot;color:blue&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
bash -c 'for pic in *.png; do convert &amp;quot;$pic&amp;quot; &amp;quot;${pic%.png}.jpg&amp;quot;; echo &amp;quot;Pic $pic has been converted to ${pic%.png}.jpg &amp;quot;; done'&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
