MERGE V2.1

MERGE is a freeware graphic utility for overlaying two images in any relative position prior to saving the result to a file. You can merge the two images in many different ways. No need to worry about relative positioning or image size/scaling differences.

Batch merge files from a directory with a single image file of your choice.
Useful to watermark all your images in just one hit.

Runs on: Windows XP, vista, 7

Here are the main features of MERGE:

Merge whole pictures with adjustable blending modes.
Rotate either or both 'source' images before merging them.
Batch Merge files with a single image - useful for watermarking your favorite images.
Type up or paste in text of any font, size and color and merge it with an image.
Smoothly blend in just part of a source image to the final result.
Using the clipboard: copy back result back to a source image and rescale or reposition it for remerging. This results in ineresting effects.
Set any relative positioning of the images on top, side by side or overlapping. See an example of a quadrant merge.
The image formats for loading and saving are BMP,JPEG,PNG,TIF,TGA,PCX.

The screenshot example below shows many facits of MERGE such as simple merging, smooth blending, rotation and inserting of text.

Note that using Ctrl C and Ctrl V it is easy to merge more than two images or text in any combination.

An interesting feature is automatic batch merging of images.

The batch_merge dialog box here allows merging of a single (watermark) image in source 1 to be merged with all the files in turn from a seperate image directory which you select by loading any image from it, this will be source 2. (It is source 2 because it is loaded AFTER source 1.)

For each and every input file in that directory, an output file of the same name is generated in a new sub-directory called 'output'.

Relative positioning, scaling, merge parameters and brightness and contrast are all set up before running this command. If you don't like the result then simply setup the parameters again and retry. None of the originals are lost.

A good tip is to set the merge parameters to COPY 2 ONLY and set SMOOTH MERGE IN SRC 1. The edges of the watermarked image will smoothly blend into the source 2 image.

NEW FEATURES for V2.1

The interface of MERGE is totally changed. Most of the commands are permanently visible, no need to keep opening dialog boxes.
Now can rotate the individual source image before merging.

December 2009 Bug report:

If you attempt to load more than two images from the file menu and select source one to be overwritten, merge will wrongly assume it is source 2. The workaround is to just use the 'change src 1 or change src 2' buttons if two sources are already loaded, don't use the file-open menu.
