oh wise list,
We need a scalable solution that can handle many concurrent requests for recreating color transformations done on a low-res jpeg in Flash –> a high-resolution jpeg on the server.
I want to create the following process : http://cl.ly/24371N3f0g0W041R380f
Should we send this data to GDLibrary? ImageMagic? and server-side Air app?
or perhaps use C++ libs in the client flash app? and send those to transformation commands to the C++ app on the server to use on the high-res image?
thank you!
First off, how crazzy is your color transformation? Is it just ColorTransform/ColorMatrix?
Image Magic has colorize functions and color transformation functions.
http://www.imagemagick.org/script/command-line-options.php?#colorize
However, this will only get you so far, as this is only the r/g/b multipliers, not the offsets. For offsets, you’d have to create your own custom function to loop through the libs. ColorTransform is fairly simple —
it’s either: color * multiplier + offset or (color + offset) * multiplier
Stay away from a server side air app — I would go with a custom already geared towards servers … ImageMagick, (I personally prefer GMagick, which is the same pretty much)
