Quoting *OU Baby* JM-BAMF:“ Ok, I made a watermark, is this too much?? ”

Maybe just use one, and angle it on the pic to cover the whole thing?

I think it looks really good though!

I tried it with just one(angled) and it looked funny on her face......My hubby was like.."put them all over the pic" lol....I was like...I am not THAT concerned about someone stealing it, I was just trying out some stuff for my photography site when I get it up.

Hmm, how did you do the watermark? I was playing with it some, and tried doing it with a bump map, and I think I really like how it turned out. The only thing with doing it this way of course is that it can't be taken off like using an overlay layer. Here is the result of my play time. lol

The top watermark is using a text overlay, and the bottom one is the using a bump map.

i really like the bottom one!

Quoting *OU Baby* JM-BAMF:“ Ok, I made a watermark, is this too much?? ”

i think it looks pretty good   what i do for a watermark is i add a white low opacity stripe that goes through something important on the pic (forehead, chin) to make it harder to be cut off, then i write on it... let me try and find an example

I typed the text then changed some settings, I made it an overlay and embossed with a drop shadow. I then made it a custom shape, and saved the preset. So now I can just go to the custom shape and its there, I dont have to reinvent the wheel every time....I will go through it and write it down in a bit so i can say it step by step!

*I also liked the bottom one!

here's mine

saves me from writing all over the pic  

Quoting lilsoph:“ here's mine saves me from writing all over the pic  ”

awww I for one just love that pic...

I like that too.....I like how there is the shadow line because that would be hard to erase!

Quoting lilsoph:“ here's mine saves me from writing all over the pic  ”

That's a good way to do it too! I especially like that type for a photographer.

Am I the only one who doesn't take pics? lol I really want to get into photography, but need a camera that's worth using first.

thanks   we were roasting marshmallows lol
yeah, and depending on how wide u make the strip and where you put it, it makes it VERY hard to clone it!
shame it doesnt look so good with full body pics  
you can also make yourself a little logo and just put it right in the center   i gotta try that haha sounds like a great idea now that i think about it!

Quoting lilsoph:“ here's mine saves me from writing all over the pic  ”

Would you mind terribly if I made something like that using your idea????

I need something to put over it when i host them on a website...

I love the logo idea..
