ImageComposer (.NET Library)

What is ImageComposer and why should I use it? 

ImageComposer is a simple .NET libary that I created to fulfill a specific need, and I found it to be so useful that I want to release it to the public in case anyone wants to use it.  It has a very simple API which lets you add a bunch of images to a composition and save the combined image to a file.

For example, the following code will combine 3 images (cellphone.png, beaniehat.png, and redball.png) into a single composite image, positioning and scaling as necessary:

using (ImageComposer imageComposer = new ImageComposer())
{
    imageComposer.AddImage("cellphone.png", 0, 0, 94, 94);
    imageComposer.AddImage("beaniehat.png", 0, 20);
    imageComposer.AddImage("redball.png", 400, 100, 120, 120);
    imageComposer.Save("combinedimage.png");
}

What does it require?

• This is a .NET library, so as such it requires the .NET Framework to be installed (I assume 2.0 or better)
• You must add a reference to the System.Drawing assembly in your project

What does it not support?

• This library does not allow you to flip or rotate images, though I'd be happy to add that ability if requested.
• I've only tested this library with .png files, though it should support other image formats.  Please let me know if it doesn't!
