Re: Watermarked images lack full transparency

Right, well I thank you for your many answers and ideas. You have have helped me.
You know, I think it may be working as expected now.

Re: Watermarked images lack full transparency

That is a good idea, but it causes a very strange effect.

Re: Watermarked images lack full transparency

Re: Watermarked images lack full transparency

Yes, I have watermarked that image you in my example, and the watermark appears. Seems like transparency is what I am looking to implement.

When you say Transparency, what can I use on the command line?

-merge ...

My question is more about Background. When I see a raw image, the back ground is white. Now, when I open that image with Xnconvert (the UI) it does this:
(See the image attached.)

XnConvert places a pattern on the white space. Is there a way to do that with the ...
