Basic Node Setup
Merge nodes are typically connected in the following way, with two input images connected to
the background and foreground inputs, and the output connected to the next node in the
composition. In this example, the effect mask input is not used, as this is not typical.

Resolution Handling
While you can connect images of any resolution to the background and foreground inputs of
the Merge node, the image that’s connected to the background input determines the resolution
of the output.
TIP: If you want to change the resolution of the image connected to the background,
you can use the Crop node to change the “canvas” resolution of the image without
changing the size of the original image, or you can use the Resize node to change
both the resolution and the size of the image.
