RE: [LegacyUG] Caption/Text for images (.jpg)

Unless you already have Photoshop, it is too expensive and complicated to
learn for this use. If you want to purchase an application, consider
Photoshop Elements 8, their "consumer" version. It is very powerful. I
happen to have both of them for photography.

I also use Irfanview (free) and FastStone (free); both will allow you to
resize the canvas and add a caption in the new area and save it.

I'm creating images (.JPGs) from  old photos.  I'd like to add a
caption/text to the bottom or top of the  image (.JPG) without
overlapping any of the original photo.  I've found  software that adds
text, bubbles, watermarks. etc., 'within' the actual image  covering
some of the original photo, but not software that 'adds to' the  .JPG
at the top or bottom of the image.

I know I can add text on web  pages, but I want to have the text as a
permenant part if the  image.


Any thoughts?


Best regards,

mike
