Create a photo collage from the Linux command line
|
||
======
|
||
Here's how I use ImageMagick to make photo grids for my social media
|
||
posts.

|

ImageMagick is the "Swiss Army knife" of manipulating images on the command line. While you could use a desktop graphics program like GIMP or GLIMPSE to adjust or combine photos and graphics, sometimes it's just easier to use one of the almost dozen tools from ImageMagick.
|
||
|
||
For example, I frequently find myself creating image montages to share on social media. Let's say I wanted to share a montage or "image grid" of several screenshots. To do that, I use the ImageMagick `montage` command.
|
||
|
||
ImageMagick is a full suite of tools, and the one I use here is the `montage` command. The general syntax of the `montage` command looks like this:
|
||
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
`montage {input} {actions} {output}`
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
In my case, my screenshots are already the same size: 320x240 pixels. To create a montage of six of these images, in a grid that's two screenshots wide by three tall, I can use this command:
|
||
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ montage acronia.png \
|
||
ascii-table.png \
|
||
music.png \
|
||
programming-chess.png \
|
||
petra.png \
|
||
amb.png \
|
||
-tile 2x3 -geometry +1+1 \
|
||
screenshot-montage.png
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This creates an image that's composed of the six screenshots, with a 1-pixel border around each. Doing the math, that's 644 pixels wide and 726 pixels high.
|
||
|
||
Note the order of the images: ImageMagick montage arranges the images from left-to-right and top-to-bottom.

In my example, the first row of images shows the open source 2D shooter Acronia and an ASCII programming example, the middle row is an open source music player and a chess programming example, and the third row shows the open source game Post Apocalyptic Petra and the FreeDOS AMB Help reader.

||
### Install ImageMagick on Linux
|
||
|
||
On Linux, you can install ImageMagick using your package manager. For instance, on Fedora or similar:
|
||
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
`$ sudo dnf install imagemagick`
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
On Debian and similar:
|
||
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
`$ sudo apt install imagemagick`
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
On macOS, use [MacPorts][4] or [Homebrew][5].
|
||
|
||
On Windows, use [Chocolatey][6].
|
||
|
||
These open source photo libraries help you stay organized while making your pictures look great.
