OT: Drag-and-Drop Watermark?

Just thought I'd ask here..... Anyone know a program for photo (JPG) watermarking that is dirt-simple and fast to operate? All we need is one line of text on a batch of photos (10-

12) and we might process a dozen batches a day. Ideally, we'd like to re-s ize at the same time.

We currently use PhotoShop Elements, which works fine of course, but it's o verkill for this operation. Just wondering if there's something faster.

Ideally, I'm thinking a program where you would enter the watermark text so mewhere and then every file you dragged into the container would get waterm arked, re-sized, and saved to a destination. Probably easy to code, but w e just don't have the time for that... Thanks everyone.

This can be done with imagemagick in Linux from a script, add text, rotate, rescale all in one line. program names that come to mind are 'convert', 'mogrify', etc. man ImageMagick should be on your box.
