Phatch is a simple to use cross-platform GUI Photo Batch Processor Phatch handles all popular image formats and can duplicate (sub)folder hierarchies. It can batch resize, rotate, apply perspective, shadows, rounded corners, ... and more in minutes instead of hours or days if you do it manually. Phatch allows you to use EXIF and IPTC tags for renaming and data stamping. Phatch also supports a console version to batch photos on web servers.
What is new? Until Phatch could only save EXIF and IPTC tags on Linux. Now this feature is available for all platforms hanks to the work of Robin Mills who managed to compile pyexiv2 and all its dependencies and get it to work on MacOS X (Tiger and Leopard, PPC and Intel) and x86 Windows. You can grab the libraries from here: http://www.clanmills.com/articles/gpsexiftags/ (Look for "Download the libraries click here" somewhere in the middle). I have not tested this myself yet, but assumes that it will work.
