What I am trying to do:
Take this image, add this image to it, then crop and resize.

What it does now:
Takes the original image and saves it to the specified location. Does not composite or crop or resize.

"-composite" needs two images before it.

"-crop" needs a geometry argument, eg 10x10+0+0.

Thank you, I meant to use Trim in this case. That should fix one issue. I will test and get back to you in a few moments.

Okay, new question. Say I want to do 250 of these in a batch. Is there anyway to send them off to a server to have it done?

I know about I was using that for a ton of images being compiled into one. However, I am unaware if there is a method for me to build the commands and build a bunch of images at once.

"Send them off to a server to have it done?" I would think the cost (time) of the comms would far exceed just doing the work.

Sorry, I don't know what you mean. You can process in loops of course, but that isn't "at once".

You can use mogrify to do that on multiple images, if the overlay image is the same for all background images. See http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/basics ... fy_compose. If not, then you would have to write script loop.
