Video Description
#############
I show you how to import images with transparent and non-transparent background. I then show you how to fix the image proportions, alpha blend over the other strips, resize, and rotate the images.
Download "Gimp", to create your own images with transparent backgrounds, here: http://www.gimp.org/

WORK AROUND: Importing images that are larger than the preview window...
You may have noticed that images that are larger than the preview window are automatically cropped.
You have to resize your images to be no bigger than the preview resolution.
The good news is, if you you have a large amount of photos, you can use a free program called "Image Magick"
( http://www.imagemagick.org/ ) to resize an entire folder of images with one command:
mogrify.exe -geometry 1920x1080 c:/path/to/images/*.png
Basically, this will shrink the images proportionately and set the Maximum geometry to 1920 x 1080 pixels.
For example, this command converted my 4320 x 3240 images to 1440 x 1080.
(Note this command will overwrite the images. So make a copy of the folder, and mogrify those images.)
