A utility many
people use for this is named
BlackFrame NR, and it's free, available here:

I am pretty sure
that some months ago a
program that would re-name digital graphics was mentioned here.
I don't just want a file re-namer I want one that can use the exif (?)
photo data for the new name. Perhaps
incorporating the date the photo was taken.
Can anyone here remember/recommend such a program please? A "how to" would be an added bonus. :-)

Flaming Pear have 2 free filters called
ghost and antighost
http://www.flamingpear.com/goodies.html
in their freebies plugin set
http://www.flamingpear.com/download.html#ghost
Ghost turns an image layer into a semitransparent picture made entirely
of black pixels. It produces
a smoked-glass effect that's hard to produce by hand..
AntiGhost turns a layer's transparency values into shades of grey.
