Free images software for linux

GRUB Splash Images package contains a collection of splashimages which can be used for GRUB.

If youd like your splashimage in this package send them to mcgrof@ruslug.rutgers.edu.

Quick tips for the impatient:

convert -resize 640x480 -colors 14 image.png image.xpm && gzip image.xpm

Quick tip for debian users: Use "unstable" packages in your /etc/apt/sources.list in order to get the latest GRUB with splashimage support

Quick tip to install GRUB (only Debian users do the apt-get line):

# using the unstable tree
apt-get install grub
grub-install /dev/hda
# Go edit/make a menu.lst file and put it in /boot/grub/menu.lst
grub
# then on the grub prompt run:

# The partition that has the boot partition
root (hd0,0)
install /grub/stage1 (hd0) /grub/stage2 p /grub/menu.lst
quit

WWW::Google::Images is a Google Images Agent.

SYNOPSIS

use WWW::Google::Images;

$agent = WWW::Google::Images->new(
server => images.google.com,
proxy => my.proxy.server:port,
);

$result = $agent->search(flowers, limit => 10);

while ($image = $result->next()) {
$count++;
print $image->content_url();
print $image->context_url();
print $image->save_content(base => image . $count);
print $image->save_context(base => page . $count);
}

WWW::Google::Images::Image is an image object for WWW::Google::Images.

Constructor

new($agent, $content, $context)

Creates and returns a new WWW::Google::Images::Image object.

Accessors

$image->content_url()

Returns the url to the image file itself.

$image->context_url()

Returns the url to the web page including the image.

Other methods

$image->save_content(%args)

Save the image file. The default is to keep its original file name, but this behavior can be altered using optional parameters.

Optional parameters:

file => $file

Use $file as file name.

dir => $directory

Use $directory as a directory path to save the file. If only file is specified, it will be saved in a path relative to the current working directory.

base => $base

Use $base with lowercase original extension added as file name.

$image->save_context(%args)

Save the web page. The default is to keep its original file name, but this behavior can be altered using optional parameters.

Optional parameters:

file => $file

Use $file as file name.

dir => $directory

Use $directory as a directory path to save the file. If only file is specified, it will be saved in a path relative to the current working directory.

base => $base

Use $base with lowercase original extension added as file name.

WWW::Google::Images::SearchResult is a Perl module that can search result object for WWW::Google::Images.

Other methods

$result->save_all(%args)

Save all the image files and web pages from result.

Optional parameters:

content => 1

Content is saved by calling $image->save_content() for each result.

context => 1

Context is saved by calling $image->save_context() for each result.

summary => 1

A summary is created, that links saved files to original URLs.

Image Cluster copies and renames images based on Exif data and file number names. Image Cluster also clusters those images into directories based on a variable sliding window (with a default of 36 hours), which makes it easy to group images based on events without manual intervention.

The inspiration for this program came from recently getting a new Canon SD500 camera to replace my Canon S30 that Id had for years. The upside, the Canon SD500 rocks! The downside, I now have 2 cameras that are burning through the same sequence numbers, so my previous solution of just putting all the files in to directories by the first 2 digits of the sequence numbers was no longer going to work.

Imagecluster solves this problem, plus another grouping problem that Id been thinking about, by extracting the CreateDate and FileNumber exif tags from the images, and using that as the basis of a new filename (typically YYYY:mm:dd_HH:MM:SS_FileNumber.jpg). This ensures that 2 images taken at the same second have an even smaller chance of colliding, as their camera sequence numbers would have to also be the same at that second.

But that is just the first step. I have noticed that I am an occational photographer, so take pictures in bursts, often for a weekend of hanging out with folks, though sometimes for a vacation as well. This got me thinking. What I really needed is a tool that also creates directories that allows for some minimum tollerance between CreateDate, that is used to cluster images. For me, the optimum value seems to be 36 hours, though this is configurable via the command line.

This took me an afternoon to pull together, Im sure it could be smarter, but it is useful enough to post for others to use.

Options:

-d directory
Set the target directory for images. Defaults to /tmp/photos, which is probably not what you want.

-D
Dryrun. Tells you what the program would have done.

-h
Print out help message

-s
Seperator character. It defaults to : (i.e. 2005:10:09...), but is user configurable because my friend Clemens wants to use - (i.e. 2005-10-09) instead.

-t
Set the tollerance for image clustering. This is the maximum time between any 2 pictures in a cluster, which will cause a new cluster to be created. The name of the cluster will be YYYY:MM:DD of the first image in the cluster, even if it spans multiple days. Because this tollerance is the maximum time between any two images in the cluster, it is possible that all images you have ever taken could be in 1 cluster, if you took a picture every day of your life. Hence, this feature isnt useful to everyone. If you are that kind of person, set tollerance to 16 hours or something, and youll tend to get 1 day sized buckets.

-v
Prints verbose output

Resize Image is a service menu which adds the ability to resize an image to a new size.

Requires ImageMagick, KDialog and bash.

Image Tree is a complete and versatile photo publishing system in less than 200 lines of code.

ImgTree is based only on three files:

index php : contains all the php and html code. Must be put, unmodified in every folder of the directory tree.
data.php : contains the specific settings of every folder
style.css : the css style sheet

Every folder of the folder tree must contain the three files. Clearly index.php and style.php should be simply linked:

imgtree/
|-- data.php
|-- index.php
|-- style.css
|-- Section-A
| |-- data.php
| |-- index.php -> ../index.php
| |-- style.css -> ../style.css
| |-- 01-thumb.jpg
| |-- 01.jpg
| |-- 02-thumb.jpg
| |-- 02.jpg
| `-- ...
`-- Section-B
|-- data.php
|-- index.php -> ../index.php
|-- style.css -> ../style.css
|-- 00.jpg
|-- Subsection-B1
| |-- data.php
| |-- index.php -> ../index.php
| `-- style.css -> ../style.css
| |-- cover.jpg
`-- Subsection-B2
|-- data.php
|-- index.php -> ../index.php
|-- style.css -> ../style.css
|-- 01-thumb.jpg
|-- 01.jpg
|-- 02-thumb.jpg
|-- 02.jpg
`-- ...

Every folder act as a section and the behaviour can be choose between:

index : Contains a list of links to every subfolder of the current folder. For every section an image and a description are shown.
thumb : Thumbnails page. Shows every image file of the folder. Thumbnail must be named "xxx-thumb.jpg" for the xxx.jpg file. Ex: 01-thumb.jpg -> 01.jpg ; tramonto-thumb.jpg -> tramonto.jpg ; ecc.
cover : Cover page. Shows an image, a text and an associated link

The file data.php contin the settings specific for every section:

$gallerystart : is the gallery start to generate the back-menu. The path must be relative to the starting folder of the site
$name : name used to link the current section in the menus
$title : page title
$description: description, used as subtitle and for brief description in index pages
$indeximage : image used in index pages to link this section
$type : type of the page (cover|thumb|index)
$imgtitle : associtive array of the images descriptions. Used only by "thumb" pages
$coverimage : image used by "cover" pages
$covertext : text used by "cover" pages
$coverlink= : link used by "cover" pages
$covertitle : title used by "cover" pages

NEEDS a web server (Apache or similar) with PHP support

Image::BMP is a bitmap parser/viewer.
SYNOPSIS
use Image::BMP;
# Example one:
my $img = new Image::BMP(
file => some.bmp,
debug => 1,
);
$img->view_ascii;
# Example two:
my $img2 = new Image::BMP;
$img2->open_file(another.bmp);
my $color = $img2->xy(100,100); # Get pixel at 100,100
my ($r,$g,$b) = $img2->xy_rgb(100,200);
Image::BMP objects can parse and even ascii view bitmaps of the .BMP format. It can read most of the common forms of this format.
It can be used to:
Just get image info, dont read the whole image:
my $img = new Image::BMP(file => some.bmp);
print "Resolution: $img->{Width} x $img->{Height}n";
View images
(See C< SYNOPSIS > example one)
Read images and poke at pixels
(See C< SYNOPSIS > example two)
Parse through all pixel data
(See C< ADD_PIXEL > below)
It does not currently write bmap data, simply because I didnt have a use for that yet. Convince me and Ill add it.
Version restrictions:
4-bit RLE compression
- I havent seen an image like this yet, it wouldnt be hard to add.
bitfields compression
- I dont even know what that is..
RLE delta compression
- This isnt tested yet - I havent seen an image that uses this portion of RLE compression, so it currently does what I think is right and then prints a message asking you to send me the image/results.
