How to watermark an image
- 1. Add your photo.
- 2. Type your watermark text and choose where it sits.
- 3. Adjust size and opacity — a subtle, semi-transparent mark looks professional; tiling protects the whole image.
- 4. Download the watermarked photo.

Frequently asked questions
Can I add a logo image instead of text?
This tool adds a text watermark, which is the most common need for names, URLs, and copyright notices. For a logo, export it as text-free art and overlay it in an editor.
Will the watermark be removable?
A tiled, semi-transparent watermark across the whole image is much harder to remove than a single corner mark. Use the 'tile' option for stronger protection.
Are my images uploaded?
No. The watermark is drawn onto your image in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
How this tool helps
A visible label can identify ownership or discourage casual reuse when an image is shared. Use a subtle watermark for previews, social posts, drafts, or client proofs; keep an unwatermarked master separately.
How to use it
- Add an image and enter the watermark text.
- Choose position, color, size, and opacity.
- Check readability, then download the marked copy.
Example
Add a photographer's name to a proof sheet without covering the main subject.
What you get
The text is rendered into a new image; the original remains unchanged.
Good to know
Limitations: A watermark is a deterrent, not copy protection. Low opacity can be hard to read and high opacity can hide detail.
Privacy: Watermarking is done locally in the browser.
