glad I could help.

you need to use DOS paths. However, the desktop is tricky to get to in DOS. It would be much easier to have a folder on your C: drive called 'cashy'. in that event you can either enter: cd\ [enter] -- that gets you to the root directory. then enter: cd cashy [enter] -- that's where your images are ...

Thanks Snibgo for your kind help,please is SELECT All a part of the convert code e.g,select all convert image.png???

That works - thanks - is there a way to make the font size and the splice a percentage, since all images have vastly different sizes and they all should have a similar 'proportion'. I figured out how to do a percentage on a frame - can that be done for all sizes?

That works, though I am looking for something that looks more like the label outcome - a solid red bar below the picture with the label in it - not with the label over the actual picture. Is there a way to achieve that with your method?

I am very new to this, so please have compassion -- I have, what I thought, was a simple problem. I have a folder full of jpgs that all need the same fixed label.
