I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

Re: XMP coyright field -> IPTC copyright field
Well, if you don't need to resize the image and you don't need the drag-n-drop feature, then you don't really need a script at all since exiftool will already process an entire directory of images (or an entire directory tree with the -r option).

But to save typing, you can put all your arguments in a file (ie. "file.args"), and use a command like this:

exiftool -@ file.args DIR

You include all of your tag assignments in "file.args", plus you can add -ext JPG to process only JPG images, -r to process subdirectories too, and -overwrite_original to avoid creating the _original files.
