Step 3. Add watermark to photos (watermark options)

Once you have imported all the photos to be watermarked you can proceed with creating the watermark.
If you don't have much time, you can simply click on a ready-to-use watermark template from the section at the bottom of the program. After choosing the watermark template to apply you can change it from the "Watermark Options" tab.
In our case we selected the "Logo Image" template and then we applied the emboss effect. Obviously you will need to import your own logo from the "image" section of the options.

Alternatively you can create a watermark from scratch. Also from the "Watermark image" tab  you can choose to create a text watermark or image watermark (logo). You can also create a layered watermark for a highly professional result. Just click on "New layer" and you can proceed with the creation of multi-layered watermarks (just like you do in Photoshop or other professional photo editing programs)

In the example you can see pictured above we have chosen to create a very simple text watermark and added a symbol (just click on the "Symbols" button to choose the one you prefer). Of course, you can change the position, size, color, angle and set a transparency so it doesn't completely cover your photo.

If you want to "replicate" a watermark on the whole photo, just click on the "Tile Vertically" or "Tile Horizzontally" checkbox. You can also add cross-shaped watermarks from the "Cross" section

There is also a "border" section to add a simple border or frame to the photo. 

Or from the QR Code section you can create a watermark in QR code style  in order to allow users to access further information by scanning that code.

As you can see, the possible watermark combinations are endless. You will be able to create the watermark of your choice in a few minutes and it will be automatically added to multiple photos you have uploaded to the program.

Step 3. Save Watermarked Photos


After you have watermarked all your photos, it's a good idea to preview them before saving them.
If everything is OK go to the "Save watermarked image" tab, select the "Enabled" checkbox and then set a destination folder where all the photos with watermark will be saved.
