@ahenry3068, I completely agree. Shelling out to run external programs can be quite slow. Another problem is that it is not portable and introduces dependencies into your program.
I noticed that ImageMagick has the ImageWand and ImageCore C APIs. If you create a QB64 wrapper or use DECLARE LIBRARY directly, you should get improved performance in your code.
