Subject: Re: bulk scale
I just learned that it is possible to deform the original image so that it
will only show as the dimensions specified.

the way the instructions are shown is:

100x200 will create an image with theses dimensions. The original picture
will keep its ratio W/H.100x200\! will also create an image with theses
dimensions, but image inside will be deformed to stick the new dimensions.

well I attempted to add the '/!' in various positions none of which worked.
I did a websearch for 'convert "\!"' but got no hits. Any ideas as to how
to get un unchanging pic?
