you draw them or create the image that you want. I dunno what more you are asking for. You are just creating an image that you like and putting it on your photo.

Stay away from the aperture logo, way too overused imo.

That.


I just came up with something extremely simple.





Someone told me that it's too intrusive to the picture but they can kiss my ass. If the client tries to be all sneaky and print screen to get their pictures without paying, the crop would be all off and they couldn't print....so it stays this way. Plus the web site is right in people's faces so they can see that web site

I think you should stretch it across the whole photo

Not worried about protecting my photos. Just wanna get my name on them. But I don't know how you guys make them and apply them.

You can either make it a PS action (google it because I haven't done it this way yet) or you can just make it a PSD file and drag/drop it into your picture and then size as you see appropriate.

Thats how I do it now.

You would have to make a action for portrait watermark and landscape then run the action and it will apply it to all the images.





Or do what Lisa said and make it a psd and drag and drop.
