Detailed Explanation
How it Works & Explanation
Add custom text watermarks to your pictures with adjustable opacity, position anchors, color, and font size.
Healthy Tips & Guidelines
- Place your watermark near the center of the image or over an area with complex textures (like a face or detailed background) so it cannot be easily removed using Photoshop's Content-Aware Fill.
- Keep your watermark small and semi-transparent. A massive, solid white logo ruins the aesthetic value of the photograph you are trying to show off.
- Always keep an un-watermarked backup of your original high-resolution files on a secure hard drive.
- If using text, include the copyright symbol (©) and the current year alongside your name.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Placing a tiny watermark in the extreme bottom-right corner of a solid white background, where a thief can simply crop it out in 2 seconds.
- Setting the watermark opacity to 100%, completely blocking the main subject of the photograph.
- Using a bright, neon-colored font for the watermark, which distracts heavily from the actual art.
- Overwriting the original photo with the watermarked version and permanently losing the clean copy.
