Need good & easy watermarking software

    Hi,

    I am trying to use GIMP to watermark a load of images and I guess I need an even simpler program for watermarking hundreds of photos...

    The idea and requirements:
    -I need an opaque grayish/slightly transparent watermark
    -watermark needs to be compatible with any font type (will use my custom font)
    -watermark will also contain my logo image
    -need to place the watermark to either one corner or the other (so it needs to be "movable"), depending on where it's good to place on each image
    -will need to place the same watermark easily with as little as a few clicks or, with 1 click in bulk for hundreds of photos...
    -of course, must be an anti-aliased watermark with transparency as well

    Any advice? I tried some programs, but they were either produced ugly cat scratches or they were too complicated programs...

    Million thanks to the one who'll give me a great advice!

    Cheers! ;)

    Hi there, This one is good, lets you batch watermark up to 500 images at once.

    Photoscape is a free editing software and it does have the ability to do watermarks in bulk. I've used it on a folder with 1000 images and it got them all.

    Though recently, I did a folder with 24 images and 3 or 4 ended up getting skipped--that's happened to me with other bulk editors as well. So I'm not sure what does that.

    That seems to be really good - seems to work, at least for humble simple copyright texts.
    Although, the entire interface is strange... so foreign. I hope I'll get used to it!

    Thanks a lot!

    TSR image watermark is available in free version. It's decent enough.

Website is https://www.watermark.ws . It outperforms any downloadable software. Give it a try and you will see :)

    I use uMark. It's easy to use.... but the free version only allows you to do 50 images at a time. So you have to drag in 50 images. Then the next 50, etc... if you have a ton of pics it can be a pain.

    What's bad about watermarking software is that they can't save the image at high quality. They tend to ruin the image after putting the watermark on.

    That's an issue I've had.
