Watermark

Hi Guys
What software do you use to watermark your photos.
A free program would be good although I don't mind purchasing a program if I have to.
Thanks
Jeff

LR morgify addon for lightroom... It's very cheap and quite powerful. Unfortunately doesn't have a WYSWYG interface. You can use the trial version for upto 10 photos.

Some of the basic programs have this feature too. I know it can be done in Picasa (Google), although it 's a very basic option. It doesn't support positioning, colour or anything.

Q: Can you give me some information about hippo racing in Australia? (USA)
A: Sure, the hippo racing is every Tuesday night in Kings Cross. Come naked.

I use this, too. Works great and lets you add 2 different watermarks.

Note that the limit of 10 photos with the "trial" version is only 10 in one batch export. If you only ever export one image at a time, you wouldn't even notice the limit.

Hi Jeff

You don't need a special program for adding watermarks in PS assuming that you use PS. I can post the step for you if you want.
Here is an example

+1. Created the watermark in PSCS. Now it's part of my LR export action.
