Last night I’ve played with ImageMagick. The result is a script which creates thumbnails such as the one on the left and the other ones on this page. The script creates two thumbnails for every picture. An inactive or unhovered variant to see if you are not hovering the image and an active or hovered variant with its title as annotation. The pictures are currently added by hand because I didn’t write a helper for this, yet. After finishing it, I’ll make the helper and my imagemagick script public on github.

If you hover the thumbnails you’ll see the sharper, non-transparent and annotated version. This is simply realized via CSS’ :hover. For your further interest: I got the first and second images from DesignNation. The third one is a typical google-image-search-finding. So I don’t know where exactly it comes from and hope it is okay to publish it here. If you know it is not, please send me a mail, thanks.

My night had about six hours of programming and playing around with ImageMagick plus about four hours of sleep. I’ll be very, very tired over day. …whatever! I have cool thumbnails now!

…off to work.
