Hey Folks,

I’m attempting to crop and scale my images using phpThumb and imageMagick. The scaling works fine, however, the cropping is still being done from the center of the image when using:
```
/img/img.php?src=/images/uploads/articles/test.gif&w=253&h=175&zc=BL
```
I believe I have the path set up correctly as I get the correct return when testing the version and path:

Version return code is 0

* Version: ImageMagick 6.2.8 08/25/10 Q16 file:/usr/share/ImageMagick-6.2.8/doc/index.html

Any suggestions?

Play a bit with the crop settings…example here:

Thanks for the reply, e-man. The problem is I guess I don’t specifically want to “crop” it per se, more, When it zoom/crops I want it to do it from a specific area, not just the center. I don’t know that the crop filter will do what I’m looking to do.
