Our DotImage Photo SDK (which is free) can do this.

To open an image

 AtalaImage botImage = new AtalaImage("bottomImage.png");
 AtalaImage topImage = new AtalaImage("topImage.png");

To overlay one on top of another

 Point pos = new Point(0,0); // or whatever you need
 OverlayCommand cmd = new OverlayCommand(topImage, pos);
 ImageResults res = cmd.Apply(botImage);

If you need the resulting image to be a different size, look at the CanvasCommand. You could also create an AtalaImage of the size you need, then overlay each image onto it.

To save

 botImage.Save("newImage.png", new PngEncoder(), null);
