Also, unless I'm mistaken Gimp uses imagemagick to perform some tasks.
That may be a possibility for your needs in batch processing.
I don't think that is true - I'm pretty sure GIMP performs most tasks
internally or through plug-ins.
GIMP can be used for batch processing as described here:
http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Basic_Batch/
ImageMagick is a separate command-line image processing tool and also
very useful in batch processing. There are tons of howtos out there
on using ImageMagick. Once I even printed out the output of 'man
convert'. Be sure you have plenty of toner/paper before you try that
though :)

Even though I like GIMP, it doesn't work with higher quality images and
thus isn't that good anymore. I use ImageMagick for anything that needs
quality and it is great. A bit of a learning curve but very powerful.
For individual images I have started to use CinePaint which will work
with HDR images.
Here are some links to get the OP started.
