The brush/stamp method seems to give me the most flexibility.

I use Painshop Pro 8 and it writes it’s scripts in python. Sadly I’m not familiar with Photoshop’s scripting process but you should be able to tweak your scripts with in the scripts code to better modify yours.

I resize all of my images to the same width and height anyway so I created 2 © layers. One for landscape and the other for portrait. Both with my © info. I then created a batch script for each. Resize;Border;Apply layer;Merge;Save.

I don’t know if that even helps you but it may get some gears moving.

I keep a word doc with signatures that I use. I will copy the one I want to use to the clipboard. Then when I am ready to add it I use the text tool and paste it in. I can then position it, size it and format it. Extra step but gives me full control.

http://www.irfanview.com/ is a very nice and small program that’ll let you do batch watermarking of your work.

It’s less than a meg and best of all — free.

I mainly use it to resize my digital photos, beats doing it manually in photoshop, beats doing it via the actions in photoshop (they are slow), and beats doing it in Macromedia Fireworks (which - incidentally - discards the EXIF information)

Hope that helps,

– Vince.

PC-only solutions are rarely useful for me.

I reckon you should give BreezeBrowser a go (www.breezesys.com).

Of course, it’s another step - but I use both, and have managed to work out an effective digital workflow.

HTH!

cheers,

I have it scripted as part of my output action. Thanks though.

I use the Imagemagick tools to add my comments/watermarks to my photography. Sure it would be an extra step, but you can easily have a directory full of images and use the –gravity southeast to put it in the lower right corner. My script is sort of a hack, but if you want it shoot me an email.

I’m not sure if this will help- I am an amature at photshop. But I created a brush with my information and then used the airbrush to leave my mark…

Using GIMP would be an extra step since I’m already in Photoshop. I don’t have anything against GIMP, it is a nice program - but it isn’t Photoshop, yet.

You talk about putting a comment in each of your photos on your website. Have you looked into gimp? (either on Linux or Windows). I understand that it, like all good *nix programs, can do everything via the terminal/command line window, thus you could write the correct commands into a small scripts pretty easily.

just a suggestion. I haven’t done it myself, but would be interested in hearing if this suggestion pans out for you.

p.s. sorry for posting this in the wrong place. Can you believe I’ve never left a comment on a blog before?

Using a program like that means uncompressing and re-compressing JPEG images and losing quality. Also, why would I want to use a whole separate program when I can do it with one click of a button in photoshop?
