In order for you to be able to use ImageMagick on Ubuntu you'll most likely need to install delegate programs with certain image formats. The ones you are likely to use are PNG, GIF (should already be installed), and JPEG.

Run the following in your terminal
Step 1:
sudo -i

Step 2:
sudo apt-get update

Step 3:
sudo apt-get install libperl-dev gcc libjpeg62-dev libbz2-dev libtiff4-dev libwmf-dev libz-dev libpng12-dev libx11-dev libxt-dev libxext-dev libxml2-dev libfreetype6-dev liblcms1-dev libexif-dev perl libjasper-dev libltdl3-dev graphviz gs-gpl pkg-config

Step 4:
wget http://www.imagemagick.org/download/ImageMagick.tar.gz

Step 5:
tar -xzf ImageMagick.tar.gz
cd ImageMagick-6.7.5-0
./configure
sudo make
sudo make install

Step 6:
sudo ldconfig /usr/local/lib
