Frequently asked questions
Can I add a logo image instead of text?
Not currently — this tool adds text watermarks only.
What format is the watermarked image saved as?
PNG stays PNG; every other format (JPEG, WebP, GIF, and others) is saved as JPEG. This matches how this site's other image tools handle format, since PNG's lossless compression is worth preserving specifically, while other formats convert cleanly to JPEG.
Can I watermark multiple images at once?
No — this tool processes one image at a time. For watermarking a batch, repeat the process for each file.
Choosing watermark settings
Opacity below 100% lets the underlying image show through the text — around 50–70% is usually enough to mark ownership without obscuring the photo, while text near 100% opacity works better if you specifically want the watermark to stand out or discourage cropping it out. For the text color, pick something with enough contrast against the area it lands on — white text on a bright sky, for instance, can be nearly invisible even at full opacity, so preview the result before downloading.
Bottom-right and bottom-center positions are the most common choice for photography and social media, since they mark the image without covering the main subject, which is usually centered or in the upper two-thirds of a photo.
