Frequently Asked Questions
How do I add a watermark to my image?
Upload your image by clicking or dragging it into the upload area. Choose between text or image watermark, customize the position, opacity, size, and rotation. Click "Apply Watermark" to see the preview, then download your watermarked image. All processing happens instantly in your browser using Canvas API, ensuring your images never leave your device.
Can I use text or image watermarks?
Yes! Our tool supports both text and image watermarks. For text watermarks, you can customize the font size, color, background, and text content. For image watermarks, upload your logo or watermark image and adjust its scale, position, and opacity. Both types support rotation and positioning options. You can also combine multiple watermarks by processing the image multiple times.
What positions can I place the watermark?
You can place watermarks in 7 different positions: Top Left, Top Center, Top Right, Center, Bottom Left, Bottom Center, and Bottom Right. Additionally, you can fine-tune the exact position using offset controls (X and Y pixels). This gives you precise control over watermark placement for optimal visibility and professional appearance without covering important image content.
How do I adjust watermark opacity?
Use the opacity slider (0-100%) to control how transparent your watermark appears. Lower opacity (20-40%) creates subtle watermarks that don't distract from the image content, perfect for copyright protection. Higher opacity (70-100%) creates bold, visible watermarks for branding. You can preview the result in real-time before downloading. This allows you to find the perfect balance between visibility and image quality.
Can I rotate the watermark?
Yes! The rotation slider allows you to rotate your watermark from -180° to +180° in 15° increments. This is perfect for diagonal watermarks, creating unique designs, or aligning with image elements. Text and image watermarks both support rotation. Combined with positioning options, you can create professional watermark layouts that match your brand style.
Is my image secure when adding watermarks?
Absolutely! All watermark processing happens entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript and Canvas API. Your images are never uploaded to any server, transmitted over the internet, or stored anywhere. This ensures complete privacy and security for your photos, even for sensitive content like professional portfolios, client work, or personal photos. The tool works offline after initial page load.
What image formats are supported?
We support all common image formats including JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, and BMP. You can upload any of these formats and download the watermarked image in the same format or convert to PNG, JPEG, or WebP. The output format can be selected before applying the watermark. Quality settings are available for JPEG and WebP formats to balance file size and image quality.
Can I add multiple watermarks to one image?
While the tool processes one watermark at a time, you can easily add multiple watermarks by processing your image multiple times. First, add one watermark and download the result. Then upload that watermarked image and add the second watermark. Repeat as needed. This workflow allows unlimited watermarks with different positions, sizes, and styles, perfect for complex branding requirements.
What are the best practices for watermarking?
Best practices include: Use subtle opacity (30-50%) so watermarks don't distract from content, place watermarks in corners (bottom-right is most common), use readable fonts and sufficient size for text watermarks, ensure logo watermarks are clear but not overwhelming, test different positions for your specific images, and maintain consistent branding across all watermarked images. Consider the image content when choosing placement to avoid covering important elements.
Can I use this for commercial purposes?
Yes! Our watermark tool is completely free for both personal and commercial use. There are no restrictions, subscriptions, or hidden fees. You can watermark unlimited images for your business, photography, digital art, social media content, or any other purpose. The tool produces high-quality results suitable for professional use. No attribution required, though we appreciate sharing our tool with others.
