How can I perform quick PHP/ImageMagick test


Folks,
I've not used ImageMagick before - I've worked with the gd functions that
are pre-compiled in PHP and found some of the limits problematic yet heard
better reviews on ImageMagick.

I've got PHP 4.3.3 - When I do a phpinfo(); it tells me it was compiled
with --with-imagemagick There is no other mention of it anywhere (unlike GD
which is listed further down in its own box).

Can someone give me a quick one or two liner script that would do *anything*
to an image called image.jpg which I could use to confirm my installation is
working correctly?

Secondly, if someone can point me to any php based imagemagick resources, it
would be helpful.

thanx
