The GUI for The GIMP has slowly improved and you will find that the new 
options attached to the Toolbox make it much easier to control things. 
I especially appreciate that there is digital control of more things. 
Updated to 2.6 last month and haven't explored all the improvements yet.

The GIMP has complete scripting functions.  Unfortunately, you have to 
write the scripts in text.  AFAIK, it still lacks record and a GUI 
script editor

DBP looks like a good idea.

You can also write Bash scripts using ImageMagick to do basic things to 
images.  See the man page for "convert"
