This script is intended for non-technical users to quickly watermark (annotate) images before publishing them on some online resource, i.e. online shop. It takes the annotation image, called 'stamp.png', located in $HOME/Pictures folder, and inserts it into bottom of all pictures images, selected in Nautilus. The resulting images are saved in their original folder with '_stamped' added to their names.
The script requires ImageMagick installed, as the whole idea is based on this tutorial http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/annotating/
The script handles spaces in folder and file names, removes trailing spaces and executes 'composite' command to produce annotated pictures.
Installation: copy into $HOME/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts and make it executable.
Usage: select one or several image files in Nautilus, right-click -> Scripts -> WaterMarkImages
stamp.png preparation: you can either create it from text following suggestions from the above tutorial or make it with your favourite image editor, i.e. GIMP. The stamp image should have transparent background; its size depends on average dimensions of your published pictures.
For Xubuntu users (file manager - Thunar): change third line of the script to:
for file in "$@"
and set it as Custom Command for image files, like
