Hi all,

I ended up using StringJoin and ToString for the dynamic file names,
and ImageAssemble to import building block images for the final merged
image. I created the "building block" images with Fireworks.

I also padded the composite image on the top and bottom if the width x
length proportion of the jpg was wider than 660 x 440.

m=1;n=0
0
n=n+1
1

* * *

If[Length[IntegerDigits[m]]+Length[IntegerDigits[n]]+Length
[IntegerDigits[m n]]==5,Export[StringJoin["03","-",ToString
[m],"-",ToString[n],"-",ToString[m n],".jpg"],ImagePad[ImageAssemble
[{Import["pad.jpg"],Import[StringJoin[ToString[m],".jpg"]],Import
["times.jpg"],Import[StringJoin[ToString[n],".jpg"]],Import
["equal.jpg"],Import[StringJoin[ToString[m n],".jpg"]],Import
["pad.jpg"]}],{{0,0},{50,50}},CMYKColor[0,1,1,.2]]]]
