I've gone through a bunch of research to find a way to apply watermarks to my photos. One step at a time works fine (even with GIMP), but it's tedious and I have a bunch of pictures. What will let me apply a watermark, and maybe even batch resize my pictures without forcing me to redirect my food budget to the software?

Here are the two I found.
Download iWatermark for Mac - Easily add watermarks to art, photos, etc. MacUpdate.com
Download DropWaterMark X for Mac - Watermark images easily. MacUpdate.com
I personally use different actions in Photoshop - depending on background I blend in a black or a white watermark. With different backgrounds I run both the black and the white watermark action, and so get a perfectly readable watermark.
If you are using GIMP, create and action for a watermark, and then you can do it as a one-step process. The higher end the software you are using is, the better it will look (choosing fonts, colors, size, location, etc.).

I have Gimp-it's free, and it does most of what I've wanted to do on individual images without too much hassle of too steep a learning curve.
The Gimp Registry solution should work-but it's aimed at Linux users who compile their own build of Gimp-that leaves me out. And that dodge doesn't work at all with the pre-compiled OS X version of Gimp anyway.
I'm still pretty much "fresh out of college" in terms of buying relatively expensive software that I won't use really, really often, so I haven't gone to the expense of buying Photoshop. I'll take a look at iWatermark and DropWaterMark as soon as I get a chance. Thanks for the pointers.
