graphics with C

Hi,
i would like to create a software in C that will apply some effects
to pics(photoshop effects like gaussian blur
,auto color....ecc) . My problem is this: i have many pics and on
them i want to apply always the same effects, but i can't do it
manually cause are many!...so i would like to create a software that
will take as input a folder and applys effects to pics...
Is this possible???

thanks everybody

Possible: Yes. Easy: NO.
A better solution might be to use a scripting language with an image
editor to automate it. Sorry, can't help you with which one to use.
Best to check a newsgroup specializing in that sort of thing. It might
even be possible to use C to write the script to control another
application doing the effects. But I wouldn't recommend it.

As far as I remember, but I am not completely sure, gimp offers some
python scripting... You could probably go with that...

Imagemagick might be what you're looking for (but we can't answer
questions about it here).

(OT) There's already some programs out there that can do batch
conversions/edits on multiple pictures. Check out Irfanview, for one.

Do you or do you not have adobe photoshop ?

Before starting to code a huge project in C first investigate if Adobe
Photoshop has batching, and operation lists or something like that.

It probably has something like that.

Actually I just checked my copy of Adobe Photoshop CS 3 and yes it does have
automation and scripting, batching and all kinds of thingies in there.

If you have it give it a try I would say... if not consider buying it...
probably much cheaper then trying to develop it yourself ;)

Hmm I take it back.

I should have looked before writing this post.

It seems kinda limited... but what do I know about shop lol.

Maybe it is possible to add modules.

I give you green light.

Program it yourself if you can ;)

But first give shop a try and google for stuff and such.

Bye,
Skybuck.

Ask in a photoshop NG. I am certain you can do this already. As most
graphics people are artists not programmers I expect there is a
relatively simple way of doing it.

If not a photoshop NG will point you at a suitable photoshop developers
NG (check the Adobe web site first)
