EditSteps

  1. 1
    Install the full version of Imagemagick on your PC. It can be downloaded here. Be sure to use version 5.5.7-Q16-windows-static. If you have previously installed a newer full version, uninstall it from your PC and install this older version.

  2. 2
    Go to the Program Files folder on your PC and find the folder ImageMagick has been installed in. Change the name of the folder to simply ImageMagick.
  3. 3
    Go to Program Files, Gallery Remote, Imagemagick folder on your PC.
  4. 4
    Open the im.properties file. It can be opened in the notebook application.
  5. 5
    Find the line that begins with im.convertPath= and change it to read im.convertPath=C:\\Progra~1\\ImageMagick\\convert.exe
  6. 6
    Save and close IM properties.
  7. 7
    Open Gallery Remote. Log into your website, and drag and drop a photo. Hopefully, all will be well.

EditAnother Option (Windows XP - and works on Vista 64)

There isn't any need to download the full program if you haven't tried this fix first:

  1. 1
    Open the im.properties file in notepad (in the imagemagick folder in gallery remote) and follow the instructions there to show the full path with forward slashes, this should resolve your issues also.
  2. 2
    Change from - im.convert path=convert.exe - to - im.convertPath=C:/Program Files/Gallery Remote/imagemagick/win32/convert.exe before it would recognize imagemagick.
