Batch plugin

Hello,

I'm looking for a batch plugin, which is the opposite of imposing the same watermark on thousands of images.

I have one background image and I need to put thousands of different images on it.

Thank you in advance, greetings

Sounds like you need a script that draws from an image database. There is something on scripting in the help file. What OS?

Stating the obvious

You see from another post that writing a gimp script is going to be a PITA, then it has to applied in a batch file.

A better way is not Gimp but command line ImageMagick.

Assuming Windows since 'batch' was used rather than 'bash', a basic command line might be, depending on file types

for %i in (*.jpg); do magick composite -gravity south-east "%i" back.png "%i.png"

That will plant a small image in the bottom right corner of a background image (back.png)

see: attachment 1 for a folder of sample files.

see: attachment 2 for result.

The place to ask the question for better advice on use is the IM Users forum
