Watermarks Are Now Available!

I'm so excited to be introducing some new watermarks! I have 5 watermarks available at the moment, 4 are new and one is a customer favorite, so I'm bringing that one back for you. My watermarks definitely needed to be updated and I have a variety of trendy styles that should please most crafters.

Some things to remember when you order:

1. I will make your watermark exactly as you type it in the order. So please double check to see that you have added correct information.
2. I personally think a web address looks more professional and pretty when you omit the "http://" as well as the "/" at the end. The watermarks will not allow anyone to click on them and send them to your website, so you may want to keep that extra stuff out of there. Again, just my opinion.
3. All watermarks will be offered in white. I am no longer making watermarks in various colors.
4. You will need a photo editing software that allows you to layer images. 
1. PicMonkey - with a TUTORIAL. PicMonkey works in your internet browser.
2. Picasa - software download with a TUTORIAL
3. GIMP - software download with a TUTORIAL
4. FotoFlexer - works in your browser

Thank you so much for your patience while I got myself reorganized and settled with my new computer. I do hope to have more watermarks to offer soon, and as always, I'm happy to hear any requests you may have.

Watermarks On Hold

Hi there.  I will be making watermarks for you again soon.  My computer crashed and I have bought a new one, and I'm in the process of transferring files.  I should be up an running by September, if not earlier.  Thank you so much!

adding a watermark using GIMP

I have a watermark tutorial for you today and I want to show you how to layer a watermark on top of a photo using a free program called GIMP. If you are wanting a decent photo editing program, this is a good place to start - you can download it at http://www.gimp.org/.

When you open GIMP, this is what it looks like. It layers on top of your desktop.


First, you'll need to open your photograph as well as your watermark.


Select your watermark and you will see it in the layers bin on the right of your screen. Click on the watermark layer in the layers bin and drag it over your photograph.


The watermark will now be in the center (most likely) of your photo.


To move the watermark, click on the 'move' tool in the toolbox. I have it selected here.


Make sure the "move selected layer" button is marked and then click and drag your watermark to move it.


To make your watermark larger (or smaller), click on the 'scale' tool in the toolbox. I have it selected here.


Be sure to select the "keep aspect" button at the bottom of the toolbox and then click on the corner of your watermark. This dialog box will appear.


Click "Scale" in the dialog box once your watermark is at the size you like.


Go to File: Save. Be sure to select "Flatten Image" in the dialog box. Click 'Export'.


Now you can click "Save".


I hope you find this tutorial helpful.


Enjoy!
Karen
