I didn't look for the wax statues but had some fun making captions
for JPGs I'll send to some relative. Some observations:

Most of the JPGs were ok, but at the cost of only a slight
increase in file size to get a bit higher resolution, they could
have looked better.

A few of the JPGs were not very good. See one of the Godzillas,
which was quite murky.

I didn't check all of the caption makers, but the one for Gary
Coleman had no JPG to work with.

I noticed that trailing blank caption lines are handled nicely.
It might be too much effort to also handle captions that have too
many characters per line, but some alternatives, such as the ability
to use a smaller font or to switch to a larger balloon which could
hold more text would also be nice. As I said, though, it was fun
and thanks for the effort. And the Betties. :)
