And sorting the photos beforehand doesn't work because I can't preview the watermark on the images and would be guessing where it would look best. Most programs want to put the watermark in the exact same place on every photo which often looks terrible. Then remember the watermark's placement but wait for a final batch process to export the files with the watermarks in the correct places on each one.

I'd like it to "snap" the watermark to the various corners and then let me fine-tune it. Also, the watermark's opacity on each photo will be adjusted manually.Īll the watermarking programs I've tried so far either have too little flexibility (eg., Lightroom) or too much (eg., Faststone, Photoshop). Where it goes will depend on the photo so as not to distract too much from the content. Sometimes it will have to be rotated 90 degrees. I need to import a transparent graphic PNG watermark file, stick a shadow behind it, and then position it in one of the corners. I've tried basically every program that is made for, or could be used for, watermarking. I'm not interested in discussing the pros and cons of watermarking itself in this thread.

This is not for copyright purposes but for self-promotion purposes. I'm going to be watermarking about 1000 photos.
