Not difficult.

Add your text, size, rotate, position it.
In the text layer, select the text (by colour is always a good bet)
Now you have the selection, you can delete the text.
Apply the filter -> Decor -> Bevel to the selection.
Done.

This is a mere bump map:

- create a text layer with your copyright and make it invisible.
- select your image layer
- Filters/Map/Bump map, and use the copyright as the bump map.


I tried this and it didn't work.  Do you make the text layer with the 
copyright invisible by hiding the layer (clicking the eye in the 
layers dialog) or by reducing the opacity to 0?


When I tried this, the copyright didn't appear at all.

Peace...



Making the copyright layer invisible is just a way to get it out of the 
way, because that layer doesn't appear in the final image, it is only 
used to transform the one with the photo. You could also move it to the 
bottom of the stack so it is hidden by the main image.


For the rest, I was incomplete: the bump-map layer should have the size 
of the target layer, so:


- add layer to image
- fill with 50% gray (127,127,127)
- move to under text layer
- merge down text layer

and use that result as the bump-map

I attached a small script in Guile I made a long time ago. It isn't
exactly what you want (doesn't rotate, for example), but that shouldn't
be too hard to add.

You can add labels, make them semi-transparent, etc.

This is a mere bump map:

- create a text layer with your copyright and make it invisible.
- select your image layer
- Filters/Map/Bump map, and use the copyright as the bump map.

You'll likely find plenty of scripts to do that.

If you have very many picture to process, investigate using ImageMagick 
instead.


And remember the rule: the size of the logo should be proportional to 
your ego and inversely proportional to the quality and interest of the 
picture :)


You can put an invisible copyright in the Exif/IPTC fields of the photo 
(good cameras can be set up to put the copyright automatically. in the 
shots they take).

Have a look here, maybe something to help.

There is also ImageMagick
