Thumbnailing + adding text

[Manuel Gutierrez Algaba]

I have a bunch of photographs and I want to get reduced versions
of them. Besides I want to add this text :
" Copyright 2000 . Manuel Gutier..." 
to the bottom of each photograph.

I'm running a standard Red Hat 6.2 box, with standard gimp.

Which commands/plugins of gimp allow me to achieve these effects ?

Thanks.

 But I think that the possibilities of batch prosessing with Gimp are not
 very well developed at the moment. So I would use convert of this. In
 combination with find it is a very powerful tool.
 
 Example: To create a thumbnail of every picture in a directory (every
 png one), just use:
 find -name "*.png" -exec convert -geometry 25%x25% {} {}.thumb.png \;
 
 If you read 'man convert' there are many options, including drawing and
 adding text to a picture.
 

Ok, thanks, I'll try "convert". I didn't think convert were so
powerful.
