    Boy, am I proud of myself

    Each week I take about 100+ photos for our eBay sales. Then I resize them, give them a little contrast and just recently figured out how to put on a watermark as there have been frequent occasions of finding my photos on other seller's listings.
    Anyway, figuring out the watermark was in itself an achievement for me, but what I'm really jazzed about is that I figured out how to batch the resize, contrast and watermark tasks automatically. Now I just point to the file and say go and it all gets done without me sitting there for hours clicking away on the mouse. I love it. Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks.
    Here is a sample of the watermark I came up with-

      Nicely done Rock. Amazing what we are capable of figuring out with a little research and effort.

                  COOL! I only worry about the mintmarks though! If they steel the whole shot more power to them - A more astute collector will look at the coin and from the close up will no it's not the same coin...

                    Looking great Rock! You deserve to be proud of this and what a time saver! I would giggle out loud each time I made a batch change so easily. I have said this before, your auctions and integrity are at the very top of the sellers on ebay! Thanks for setting and keeping up this awesome example!
