Capture will not do it but it's easy using Photoshop. I tend to do most of my processing in Capture then open it in Photoshop if I want a border or a signature. In Photoshop it's very easy to make an 'action' to add your predefined signature at the touch of a button. Do you currently have Photoshop? If so which version?

i have the old version 5

I'm not sure about that version but basically what I would do is to select your font and get it to the size you like for your typical image size. The copyright symbol © is ALT 0169 (hold down the ALT key and using the Numeric keypad type 0169 and the symbol should appear. I don't think all fonts have this symbol so you might have to select a different font for that character. Type the rest of your signature and you can play about with opacity and how sharp or strong it is depending on your chosen font. I tend to select right justification and stick it in the bottom RH corner. I make this into an action but I cant tell you how to make one on version 5 as I would probably get it wrong.

Hope this helps. If you need help just ask.

Cheers
