Download the watermarked image
Click Apply Watermark to generate the final image, then download it. PNG input stays PNG; other formats are saved as JPEG.
Watermarking images protects your work by embedding your name, brand, or logo directly onto the visual. Use Text mode for a copyright notice or URL, or switch to Logo mode to overlay your brand mark — ideal for photographers and agencies.
Best practices: Use a PNG logo with a transparent background so only the mark is visible. Set opacity to 40–60% for a professional look. Tile mode creates a grid pattern that makes watermarks harder to crop out.
Text controls: Type your watermark text, then choose a position (centre, any of the four corners, or tile). Font size runs from 12 to 200 px, opacity from 5% to 100%, and rotation from -90° to 90°; the default is a slightly tilted white label in the bottom-right corner. Use the colour picker to pick a shade that contrasts with the photo, since white text disappears on a bright sky. A live preview above the Apply button updates as you change each setting.
Logo controls: Upload a PNG, SVG, JPG or WebP file, then set its size as a percentage of the image width (5% to 60%), its opacity, and its position. The logo keeps its own proportions. A PNG with a transparent background works best, because a JPG logo brings its white or coloured box along.
Output format: After you press Apply Watermark, download the result. A PNG stays a PNG. Every other format (JPG, WebP, GIF, BMP) is saved as a JPEG at 92% quality, and transparency is not kept in a JPEG. An animated GIF becomes one static frame. The watermark is drawn into the pixels of the copy you download, so it cannot be turned off later; your original file is not changed. Changing any setting after applying clears the result, so press Apply again.
Tips and privacy: Place the mark over a detailed area rather than a plain corner if you want it harder to crop out. Keep the original unwatermarked file somewhere safe. Everything runs on a canvas in your browser, so neither your photo nor your logo is uploaded. If the tool fails on a very large image, try a smaller copy.
