But I would love to give the users a self-contained app, without any extra installs. This would require to statically compile imagemagick and bundle it inside the app. A Static compile of imagemagick seems to be a tricky task.

Apart from that I don't even know if the license of every dependency would allow that.
I see. I am not familiar with OS X, so I cannot ponder the question throughfully. If "sips" is a standard utility of OS X (as it seems to me), then your script is a very adequate solution.

It is a shame it lacks many powerful options already included in imagemagick, though.
