Sample script

[Marco Bambini]

Hello, I am an ImageMagick newbye and I would like some help in building the correct command line in order to be able to perform an image composition test (on Windows).

I have 5 jpeg images ... image1.jpg ... image5.jpg, the output image should be:
1) 15.000 x 10.000 pixel with image1.jpg as the background (scaled) and with a 50% blur effect
2) the other 4 images appended on top of the background (in any order) with a shadow effect

Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks a lot.

Sounds a lot like my example on scripted image layering
http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/layers/#example

You process the overlat images how you want, then add a background
of some kind.

Can you give use some smaller images and details on how you like them
arranged?

I suppose at 2400 dpi you can tell if the paint is giving her a rash.
