Default How to automatically add logo's on top of JPEG's and GIF's???

Hi guys,

I would greatly appreciate it if any of you can point me to the right direction. Let's say I have 100 JPEG's or GIF's in a directory and would like automatically add a logo onto each of them at the lower right hand corner. How do I go about doing this? Is there a program that can do this automatically. Hopefully I won't have to manually open each one of the JPG/GIF to do this.

Thanks
-Tuan

If you have Adobe Photoshop, you can build a sort of macro to do stuff like this. It's under File > Automate > Batch.

How do you define the action(s) to be applied onto those JPG's?

Thanks

You already know it's called an "Action" so you must have Photoshop. I recommend you read the help file that accompanys Photoshop. Look up "Batch" and "Action" in the index.

When you create a new action, the commands and tools you use are added to the action until you stop recording.

No, that was a co-incident. I didn't know it is actually called "Action" in Photoshop. Thanks for your help. I appreciate it very much.

It's cool, if you can't help. No need to have an attitude.

i'm not giving an attitude, just what i consider to be generally good advice. I'm trying to teach you to fish, not hand you a filet. No need to get all defensive. After 5 minutes of reading the help file when i was in college I proceeded to make $600 for some image processing work when all I had to do was record an action, sit back and smoke some dope while it ran. Learning to fish.
