Question 1

How do I add a watermark to my image?

Accepted Answer

Upload your image, then type your watermark text in the text field. Customize the font size, color, opacity, and position using the controls. You can place the watermark in 9 different positions (corners, edges, center) or use the tile option to repeat it across the entire image. Enable text shadow for better visibility on light backgrounds. Preview the result in real-time and download when satisfied.

Question 2

What watermark positions are available?

Accepted Answer

Our tool offers 9 precise positions: Top Left, Top Center, Top Right, Middle Left, Center, Middle Right, Bottom Left, Bottom Center, and Bottom Right. Additionally, the Tile option repeats the watermark across the entire image in a grid pattern, making it impossible to remove without ruining the image. The diagonal rotation option adds a professional look to tiled watermarks.

Question 3

How opaque should my watermark be?

Accepted Answer

For a visible but non-intrusive watermark, use 30-50% opacity. This makes the watermark clearly visible but doesn't distract from the image content. For stronger protection, use 60-80% opacity. For subtle protection that's harder to remove but less noticeable, use 20-30% opacity. The tiled pattern with diagonal rotation at 30% opacity provides the best protection against image theft.

Question 4

Can I use an image or logo as a watermark?

Accepted Answer

Currently, our tool supports text-based watermarks only. However, you can achieve a logo-like effect by using special characters or symbols in the text field. Image/logo watermark support is on our roadmap for a future update. For now, you can use the text watermark with your brand name or URL for effective protection.

Question 5

Does watermarking reduce image quality?

Accepted Answer

Watermarking doesn't reduce the resolution or quality of the underlying image. The watermark is rendered at the same resolution as the original image. However, when saving the watermarked image, the output format and quality settings matter. Use PNG format for lossless quality or JPEG/WebP at 90%+ quality for minimal quality loss.
