montage with original sizes intact

[RezaRob]

montage makes the original image sizes tiny. I actually want the originals to be "zoomed" even bigger with
high quality smoothing at the same time.
This doesn't work:
# montage -resize 500% ooo-*.gif ooo.gif

I'm on Ubuntu 10.04.

Thanks a lot,
Reza.

try


montage -geometry 500x500+2+2% ooo-*.gif ooo.gif

The alternative is to turn off the -geometry size (EG; use -geometry +2+2 ) and then use -resize yourself (after reading in the input images). That way you can do further modifications of the images before they are finally montaged.

Note the list of convert options that are simple saved by "montage" to use later, rather than their normal "convert" use.

Other than that "montage" should accept all "convert" settings.
