  • Create an action that will watermark images of both portrait and landscape orientation with a uniform size and placement. This tutorial was created using Photoshop CS6 but these functions are backward compatible with most versions of Photoshop that have come out in recent years. I hope this helps!

    Worked fantastically with my existing watermark, with the minor change to a square. The *place* function was my missing step all these years.
    Thank you

    Thanks for sharing your technique. This is much faster than my previous one and I don't have to have separate folders for landscape and portrait orientations.

    But what if your landscape picture is a crop and therefor not exactly the same size as the standing picture. It works perfect but not when my standing picture has more pixels. The logo appears smaller on my standing picture then it does on my landscape picture. Would love some help on that since I have been searching for an answer to this for a long time. My picture all varie much in ratio and sizes.

    • @josephbrewster3391
      @josephbrewster3391 8 лет назад

      This is why it is important to make sure 4 things (1) Logo file is square (2) Logo file is PSD (3) Logo file is larger than your original picture (4) Place the logo. If you follow those things, this technique should work. If you have access to Lightroom, there is a much easier way to do this using Lightroom's watermark feature, which is what I currently use

  • @JosephBrewster
    @JosephBrewster  11 лет назад

    Can you identify any differences between the ones that didn't work right and the rest? Since the layer is placed by the coordinance of the selection, that would be the source of your variations. Perhaps a crop value is involved? It's hard for me to tell without more information.

    Please help... I'm using the latest PhotoShop CC, and there's no 'Place' option. I have 'place embedded' and 'place linked' but both options are placing a smaller logo in the centre of the image, even though the logo is square and larger than the image.

    Using photoshop CC: though the action is applied correctly after hitting play, after each picture photoshop asks me where to save it and it saves in .psd by default. Can't it close them saving them automatically to a folder of my choice?

  • @josephlamendola6643
    @josephlamendola6643 10 лет назад

    Why is it essential to rasterize the watermark before scaling? It was my understanding that there is a higher probability for quality loss when scaling a raster image as oppose to a vector image.

    • @Matthiasvd8
      @Matthiasvd8 9 лет назад

      I think it does not matter because when you rasterize the image in this tutorial you are not going to increase the size. thus no risk of losing quality. A vector image is great when you might be increasing the size in the future.
      I think :D

  • @royshp

    Is there a way that I can add color to the logo that is suitable for each picture separately?

    • @JosephBrewster
      @JosephBrewster  9 лет назад

      Sorry for the late reply. You could either use a blend mode (such as overlay) for the watermark, or have several different colored watermarks with an action for each, then just run the action with the color you want.

    Dude there is something really wrong with my settings somewhere!
    This doesn't work for me. :( I have been using Photoshop for 7 years and like to think I am pretty good at it. Worked out how to do this without the tutorial but wasn't working properly. The size I am getting on the portrait is way smaller every time! So i head on over to check out what others are doing and its the same and yet it works for you guys!?? I'm at my whits end.
    Could it be how I pre processed the sizes of my images b4 hand? I always batch file my web ready images by using File -> Scripts -> Image Processor then set my size to fit at 1600px x 1600px (this does not make them squire but its action is to make the longest edge of ether orientation 1600px). Could this be messing with my logo placement???

    Beauty, thanks. Stupid Photoshop. When you place an image and set the X and Y Coordinates it should use those coordinates instead of converting that to a "translate" function in the action. Adobe needs to give their heads a shake.
