Pictures look better when they have a border around them. To make things easy for me, I've written a small script that does a lot of boring things for me. It resizes an image so that it fits a 1000x1000 square, then creates a black border around it that's a slight bit larger at the bottom and places my name and website URL on the side. Here is the code:

  #!/bin/bash

[ -z "$1" ] && echo "Usage: $0 <file>" && exit 1

IN="$1"
IN_NOEXT=$(echo $IN | sed 's/\\.[^.]\\+$//')
OUT="$IN_NOEXT-bordered.jpg"
echo "INPUT: $IN"
echo "OUTPUT: $OUT"

BORDER_BOTTOM=40
BORDER_OTHER=20
POINTSIZE=12
