A watermark marks an image as yours and discourages casual reuse. Done well it is visible enough to claim ownership without ruining the picture.
Text or logo watermark
A text watermark, like your name or website, is quick and flexible. A logo watermark looks more polished and reinforces your brand. The Watermark Studio supports both, and lets you set exactly where each one sits.
How to add a watermark
- Open the Advanced Watermark Studio.
- Add your image, or several at once.
- Add text or upload a logo, then set position, size, and opacity.
- Download the watermarked image.
It runs in your browser, so your photos stay on your device.
Getting the balance right
- Opacity: around 30 to 50 percent is usually enough to claim the image without dominating it.
- Position: a corner is subtle, while the center is harder to crop out.
- Tiled watermarks across the whole image give the strongest protection for high-value photos.
Batch and finish
If you have a gallery to protect, apply the same watermark across the set in one pass. Afterward, shrink files with the Image Compressor before publishing.
Frequently asked questions
How do I watermark many photos at once?
Add the whole set to the Watermark Studio, configure the watermark once, and it applies to every image.
What opacity should a watermark be?
Around 30 to 50 percent is a good balance. It claims the image without hiding the photo behind it.
Can a watermark be removed by cropping?
A corner watermark can sometimes be cropped out. Placing it near the center or tiling it across the image makes that much harder.
