Question: Putting text on pictures on a mac?

How do I add text to a photo on a mac?

iPhoto is all I need for my photographs. But I'd like to add text to certain photos (actually on the photos) for a website. What's the easiest program I can use to do this? The gimp, photoshop elements, etc are way more than I need.

If the program is free that's even better. Thanks.

Is there a Mac equivalent of Paint?

GraphicConverter is free. Download it from MacUpdate.com or VersionTracker.com

ImageMagick, which you can get via fink, can do this as well.

free, and is a command line tool. great for scripts.

ImageWell or Seashore would probably do the trick. Both are free.

There's a Mac version of GIMP too that'll probably do the trick.
