Questions and postings pertaining to the usage of ImageMagick regardless of the interface. This includes the command-line utilities, as well as the C and C++ APIs. Usage questions are like "How do I use ImageMagick to create drop shadows?".
OK, follow on question: can ImageMagick weight the images i.e. the highest numbered contributes say 50%, then the next 25%, then 12.5%, and then 2 lots of 6.25% (i.e. to give 100%) ?

True, but when you come down to it, any method can be de-composed to a sequence of two values at a time!

True, but then you need to do some calculations to do running averaging rather than average all images at once. I posted a script earlier in this topic to show how to do the running average without weights, when you have too many images to do all at once. I have not tried to do that with weights yet.
Basically I've been playing around with TimeLapse movie on my Android phone, which with ICS is really easy.
Thing is that there's no ability to "drag" the shutter, so I thought maybe I could use ImageMagick to average some frames, and give a similar effect.
Turns out, you can get some nice results, and a handy side benefit is that you can separate the "drag" duration from your framerate ie you can average 3 seconds of frames, and have 1 frame per second in your movie.
