Perhaps ImageMagick is installed but not active. If so, you should just
have to run `sudo port activate ImageMagick`.

Alternatively, you're looking for the wrong thing. ImageMagick does not
contain a command named 'imagemagick', instead it installs several
commands such as convert, display and mogrify. You can see a full list
of the files it installs with `port contents ImageMagick`.

I'm not familiar with GraphicConverter using ImageMagick. Is it a
standard feature? Where is it configured? Hopefully it doesn't just
always assume /usr/local and there is a way to tell it where ImageMagick
really is.
