I am considering using GraphicsMagick (http://www.graphicsmagick.org/) in a Java project. Does anyone have any experience with this? Suggestions on how to get started? It seems like there isn't a native Java library so it may be a little more difficult.

Thanks!

It's definitely possible. Take a look at IM4Java, a Java abstraction around the commandline interfaces of various ImageMagick like tools (including GM) that feels like a language binding. Very little documentation, but sufficiently simple. Obviously your images have to be accessible from the OS (e.g. not inside ResourceBundles).
