+
+!!! Usage Examples
+
+! Resizing
+
+ convert -sample width x height input.jpg output.jpg
+
+The widths
/heights can also take % values. It scales proportionally, so going 25%x25% on a non-square image will still make it come out non-square
+
+! Joining images together
+
+ convert files +append output.jpg
+
+The +append appears to join them together left to right. -append possibly does something else. Haven't really looked into it.
+
+Situation: You have a bunch of digital photos that you want to string next to each other for a website banner
+
+1. Resize them all to 400px high (Just for ease of doing stuff later)
+
+ for img in *.jpg
+ do
+ convert -sample x400 "$img" "$img"
+ done
+
+2. Join them together
+
+ convert *.jpg +append output.jpg
+
+This will of course join them in alphabetical order. You may want to do something about that
