timestamp_image

This is yet another script to deal with images from digital cameras. It will scale (resize preserving the width to height ratio) down the image to the size you’ve specified and annotate (write on top of the image) it with date time taken from EXIF header of the image. Font face, size and color are configurable. Modified images will be saved with different name (as specified by the prefix variable inside the script).

This script is written in perl. It works with Image::Magick module and jhead program (since Image:EXIF failed to compile on my machine).
