problem with composite

[jnimo]

Hello i'm trying to make a simple example of composite (puting a pic over other pic), but when i try to use the command it "runs" but it dosn't put the image over.

here is the command with -verbose

jimmy@Cancer:~/Desktop/prueba$ composite -verbose logo.jpeg foto.jpg output.jpg
logo.jpeg JPEG 131x135 DirectClass 4kb
foto.jpg JPEG 604x453 DirectClass 56kb
logo.jpeg JPEG 131x135 DirectClass 4kb
foto.jpg[1] JPEG 604x453 DirectClass 56kb
foto.jpg=>output.jpg[1] JPEG 604x453 DirectClass 56kb 0.040u 0:02

the output.jpg is exactly as the foto.jpg, and it dosn't put the logo.jpeg on top.

here is my version just in case this is need it

jimmy@Cancer:~/Desktop/prueba$ composite -version
Version: ImageMagick 6.2.4 10/02/07 Q16 http://www.imagemagick.org

Code: Select all

composite -gravity center logo.jpeg foto.jpg output.jpg

That will place the logo in the center; you can use the points of the compass e.g. NorthEast etc.

If you want to place the code in a particular position try -geometry +x+y position from top left corner.
