Ok here we go: $im http://i1181.photobucket.com/albums/x431/Steve_Price/4289_banner-lg2_MASTER.jpg I take the above image and place the next image over it with a gravity of south west $bottom_left_image http://i1181.photobucket.com/albums/x431/Steve_Price/bottom.png This creates this: http://i1181 ...

Looking back it doesn't make much sense. I'll post an example of the image I want to achieve

I've made some progress in creating a mask, but I'm having trouble changing background to a gradient. "\( -gravity SouthEast "\( -pointsize 30 -background black -fill white -font \"$below_font\" \"label:$content\" -splice 0x8 \) ". "\( +clone +matte -fill Sienna -colorize 100% \) ".

Apologies anthony, my server doesn't like it when it's split into lines annoyingly.

This is a bit cheeky of me, but could you refactor my command with your suggested fixes? I'm struggling to visualise how the code should look.

I'll take a look at those examples though.

Pango looks very very interesting. I don't know how I've not come across it before!

I have a the following text "FROM £1.99" that I want to generate. The problem is I want the "FROM" to be a different size font to the "£1.99". Is there any way to place the "FROM" next to the "£1.99" ? I tried using -repage but that sets the canvas to the middle of the £1.99, what I need is to set th ...
