This how-to is tell you how to add a watermark on the image file.
The image file is youtube.jpg, 1024×768.
I would like to add a watermark to the youtube.jpg. The watermark is a small picture.

By default, the image format of `file' is determined by its magic
number. To specify a particular image format, precede the filename
with an image format name and a colon (i.e. ps:image) or specify the
image type as the filename suffix (i.e. image.ps). Specify 'file' as
'-' for standard input or output.
Add Watermark
Run the following command to add the watermark. Composite command is the part of Imagemagick lib.
composite -gravity southeast -geometry +10+10 -dissolve 75% "watermark.jpg" "youtube.jpg" "youtube-with-watermark.jpg"
The watermark picture is located on the low right corner with 10px margin. A little bit transparent on the watermark.
The watermark file is a jpg file in this example. I can also use a png file, which can be a transparent file.
Add a Transparent png watermark on the image
Now I put the watermark on the left low corner.
