in reply to imagemagick alternative
I used GD to create and modify images in Perl. There is also a simplified version of it: GD::Simple
I see also Prima::Image but I never used it nor the parent module Prima (is in the TOTRY list since.. boh?), it is a good collection of modules.
Anyway.. what do you need to do with images? Knowing this aspect can change the answer a lot.
