This posting's local OSX ImageMagick install procedure via Darwin Ports(see jvandyk's comment)seemed to go off without a hitch, except Drupal (4.74 ) was unable to generate thumbnails and previews. Also, there doesn't seem to be any place to input the location of the convert binary in my Drupal interface. I screwed around with this for quite some time by attempting to modify the image.imagemagick.inc file to point it at /opt/local/bin/convert file, but alas it didn't work. What seemed to fix this problem was to download and enable the image_enhanced_scaling module. This module seems to bypass the image.module's scaling algorithm, which doesn't seem to play nicely with ImageMagick under OSX Tiger. I still get the error messages but the thumbnails and previews are successfully created. This seems a little cludgy. I'm not very php or command line savvy. Anyone have a better idea?

I am using PHP 4.4.1 under Mac OSX 10.4.8
