I can not afford Photoshop for my OS X.

I need to add captions on digital images.

Does anyone know of a freeware or shareware program that will allow me to do this.

I have not found any thing in iphoto to allow text on the image. I need the text on the image. I add the text and then email that image to a person.

Do any of the Photo web sites allow.

I am an Sony Image Station member, but I only see the ability to have a caption below the image NOT on the image.

Thank you in advance.

BTW - I simply want to put a time/date stamp ON the image. My current camera will record the date/time put I cannot place it on the image itself. It is in the info section of the image.

Bob,

Thanks, there is some stuff that will do the trick, cheaper than Photoshop.

Now I am getting greedy. I have discovered that my camera has DPOF (Digital Print Order Format). I can get a date/time stamp on the images with this feature, but I am not able to get them on my Mac using Iphoto 5. I have a G5 with 1GB mem and dual 2 MB processor.

Any thoughts,

Bill Griffin
