adding text to jpeg images using Python/PIL/???

[Chris Gonnerman]

You can do this with either PIL (Python Imaging Library):

    http://www.pythonware.com/downloads/index.htm

or gdmodule:

In either case, you would load the picture, draw the text
at the desired location (both libraries will report the
picture size if requested), and resave it, possibly under
a different name.
