A Magick PIL
I used to do my image conversions with ImageMagick and system calls back in my PHP days. With Django PIL is the obvious choice for most image stuff, but frustrated by the lack of a proper unsharp mask function for PIL I found some code in the bits and pieces of documentation for PythonMagick. (yes I know, Kevin Cabazon wrote PIL_usm, but I could not get it to work, probably due to my inexperience. Anyway, this code makes it easy to convert back and forth from PIL to PythonMagick (maybe not such a good idea on a memory tight high loaded production server, but no problem on my private server (Pentium-M @ 1.8 Ghz with 1 GB Mem.)
usage: usm takes a PIL image object. Radius and sigma is in pixels, amount 1 compares to 100% in photoshop, threshold 0.004 ~ (1/256) compares to 1 in photoshop: I'm using r=1,s=0.5,a=0.8,t=0.016 for roughly 800x600 images created from 3000x2000 (6MP) images. Experiment for your own preferences.

Why break a butterfly on the wheel when you can write own PIL filter or use builtin ImageFilter.SHARPEN?
