[magick-users] exporting psd layers

[Jacky J]

I'm using pngs though..

If you wanna try this yourself, create a new psd file with transparency, 
draw something quick and dirty, save it out as image.psd
then run

convert image.psd[0] out.png

The whole halo issue might just be with the psd i'm working with, cause 
i haven't actually tried it with one from scratch. But the size issue is 
still there.
