Have you given ImageMagick or GraphicsMagick a try? I know for some of the simple things you seem to want to do, either might work. I believe SuSE is using GraphicsMagick now which is a fork from Image. It also gives you many shell commands and actually needs to be started from the shell with the command "display". I've used both for quick resizing, enhancing and other things without having to play for a hour to figure things out.
As far as I understand it, ImageMagick only manipulates existing images, it does not allow one to create new raster images. Am I wrong? Can I use it to create pseudo-3D textures? Something like the simulated 3D of the dimples in a scroll bar? I don't know about GraphicsMagick.
have fun, Lee
