A noble spirit embiggens the smallest man

This page is very much under construction, since I haven't even written all the scripts I need to properly automate everything. In the meantime, since I've had some requests, here's what I have so far:

• watermark_signature - A Gimp Perl-Fu script that watermarks an image with a bump-mapped "transparent" text string.
• watermark_images - A Gimp Perl-Fu script that batch-processes a list of files and watermarks them with the watermark_signature script. Should call watermark_signature, but currently doesn't, because of some wackyness in Gimp's memory management (or my poor coding...).
• gen_websized_images - A Gimp Perl-Fu script that takes high resolution images and generates web-resolution images and thumbnail images from them automatically. It spits out a couple of warnings right now, but works just fine.
• webify - Another Perl script. This does the same thing as gen_websized_images, but through the command line. It relies on ImageMagick for all the actual "work", it's just a nice wrapper to make my life easier. It's a whole lot faster than gen_websized_images, but I'm not as happy with the results. I think Gimp does a much better job with its image reduction sampling algorithms, so I use it even though it takes forever. The ImageMagick mogrify is powerful and flexible, though, and might well be coaxed into giving smoother output with a little tweaking. It's up to you!
• genpicpages - A Perl script that takes a data file (format described in comments in the code) containing header/footer html, and image names and captions, and generates linked HTML pages for viewing the pics. Check out my photo galleries for this script in action.
