This script uses photoshop cs3 or Photoshop Elements to create a border for your jpg images. It will also enter the copyright information for your image. A directory will be created in the same directory where the original images are. The new images will be saved with the same name as the original image. The directory name is an argument on the command line. To start the script type:
cscript CreBorders.vbs c:\images
This is the result of the script :
