How to add background to an animation?

Post by binocthex11 »

I have a GIF animation with transparent background. I want to put the animation
on a background picture, whose size is identical to the animation. If I add the background
to each frame of the GIF, the final file size will be too large.

So how to use ImageMagick to do that? Thanks! :)
