There are two plugins here. One to add a text watermark and another to add an image watermark. The image watermark is really helpful if you want to add beautiful copyrights with your logo or a custom colored styled text logo.
An easy to use GUI and the Sript does what its built for. This is like Scripts have to be! What I miss is a batch function for multiple pictures. Maybe it's possible with gimp itself but I'm not a pro. Tips are welcome.
Anyway, 5 stars so far!

So I still can't seem to open this file and add the script to GIMP. Every time I try to download the file, all I get is a message that Windows can not open the file. I reviewed the beginner tutorial and this did not help either as it talks about unzipping the file and I can't even get to that point. I apologize for being so an idiot, but could someone PLEASE help? Thank you in advance.
Assuming you are using windows, and assuming you are using internet explorer,
Right click on the file link and select "Save Target As"
Then change the "save as type" drop down to be "All Files"
browse to either:
C:\Documents and Settings\\.gimp-2.6\scripts\
(preferred, and you will haveto change the 2.6 to the version of gimp you are using, plus in vista it may save profile information somewhere else...)
C:\Program Files\Gimp-2.0\share\gimp\2.0\scripts\
(this is where you installed gimp...it might be 2.4 or 2.4 instead of 2.0, again, depending on the version...)
The next time you start gimp, this script should be available as:
Filters->Eg->copyright

Also, I discovered that GIMP must be closed while the script download is taking place. Otherwise the script won't show up when you try to access it in GIMP. I use Linux.
in general: open the script with a text editor (not a words editor ...something more simple as the notepad )
You do not need to "know script fu" just to look to the last lines for something as a path
in this case for this line
.......
;
(script-fu-menu-register "script-fu-Eg-Copyright"
"/Filters/Eg")
;
so in this case is in Filters/Eg

Adding an image as watermark.
