	I have some photos that need sharing. I want to grab the first ten characters of the filename (YYYY-MM-DD) and place them onto the bottom left in some obnoxious color that's easily seen. Thing is, I don't want to open each photo is GraphicConverter (or Photoshop) and manually place the text. I want an AppleScript or some .app to do it for me. In fact, I want said app to grab some text (perhaps the location) from the EXIF data and plop that on the image as well. Does this sort of thing already exist? Something similar?
