Let's Crop A Picture
Did you ever want a frame but didn't know how you could get that picture out of the center? Well if you go to Image Magick and use Draw you can do this. Or, if you want the picture and not the frame you use Transform.
Take this framed pic of the kittens to Image Magick:
For printers convenience here's url:

Point and Click in the left bottom corner inside the frame (image is 259x281).
You should get 28 first number which is size of frame width.
Now Transform - Offset numbers +28-28 CROP and be sure to click on "Reset Geometry".
Again Transform using -28+28 CROP
your frame is off the picture. Now just upload as a JPG.
Now for one you want the frame and not the picture, using the same example image.
Go to Image Magick with your picture and point and click (p&c) inside the frame at the top left corner and numbers I got 28,28 Go to bottom right corner and it's 231,253. The image was 259 x 281
To DRAW - RECTANGLE -- Offset numbers 28,28 231,253 white in Fill color nothing else is needed.(The 28 which was the size of the frame, was subtracted from 259=231 -- then 28 from 281=253)
Go toPaint Fuzz 7777 Matte Click in center of frame. You now have removed the picture and upload as a GIF THAT'S IT.
