Simple batch scripts to create product images.

Framed image generator

Simple shell scripts to generate Etsy-ready artwork product images.

Framemagick

This uses imagemagick. Run it in a folder and it'll automatically convert any image it finds. Append the relevant code to the filename to control the frame template used:

• [filename]-p = portrait 8x10
• [filename]-l = landscape 8x10
• [filename]-pa = portrait A4
• [filename]-la = landscape A4
• [filename]-s = square

Frame.sh

Uses Cloudinary. The script will iterate through batches of sequentially numbered images, generating framed and cropped versions of each.

Files will be output as JPEGs.

1. Upload product images to Cloudinary

Usage

sh frame.sh [image shape] [start no] [stop no] [batch name] [output name]

For example:

sh frame.sh l 1 20 Buttterflies_8x10 Butterflies

Image shape

The script can generate frames for square, A4 and 8x10 images, portrait or landscape.

• p = portrait 8x10
• l = landscape 8x10
• pa = portrait A4
• la = landscape A4
• s = square

Start and stop numbers

Specify the number of images to download in a batch. If there are 20 images and you want to download all of them, put 1 20. If you only want a few, specify the range within, e.g 5 15.

Batch name

Make sure images uploaded to Cloudinary follow the pattern [batch name]_[number], e.g. Butterflies_8x10_1, Butterflies_8x10_2 etc. Use batch name without the trailing underscore and number, e.g. Butterflies_8x10.

Output name

This is the saved filename for your images. This can be the same or different to the batch name. They will also be numbered sequentially.
