I have been searching TH-cam for over a month trying to find a good video on how to watermark photos using Elements. This video is way superior to anything I have seen so far, and goes above and beyond with much more information in an easy to follow and apply tutorial. In comparison the others do not know Elements.
I'm so grateful for your tutorial on watermarking...I have tried many, many other sites and would only get so far and got stuck...your instructions helped me immensely and I now have my very own watermark..thanks so much
Bob, where did you get the copyright symbol that you typed in. I too am on a Mac and I don't know where to find it.. Thanks, great tutorial as usual, clear and concise.
Thanks so much for taking the time to show us this!!!! I'm trying to get all my pic's watermarked, and have been struggling with it. I hope that I can get my version of elements to do what you've showed. Thanks again!!!!!
Hi, Great and very informative tutorial on watermarking. Which elements are you using? My question is completely off topic, but I've not been able to find any help for this question. I have 10 and my tool bar does NOT look like this and I don't seem to have a sharpen tool to use for selective sharpening. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
This is a great video and I have managed to water mark. My issue however is this. When the water mark images have been processed and saved to the designated folder it won't let me view them in that folder, it just shows the thumbnail with the picture of adobe icon. When I double click the picture it opens...but in adobe elements and I need to open each one individually. Why will it now allow me to view them and flick through all of them as I can with the original files?
Lori, I believe you have to be in Expert mode in order to process multiple files. Now, for my issue that hopefully you or someone else can help me with. When I click on the picture to insert Text, a tiny little microscopic text bar appears even though my font is set at 100 pt. How can I fix this? I keep re-playing this tutorial to see if I have missed something, but I seem to have all the same settings as you. What am I missing?
I just did the WaterMarking but would like to know. How do i increase the font because i use the multiple process form it still has it pretty small. How can i increase that?
Your video was helpful, but I have one issue you didn't explain. How would you be able to use the custom watermark and place it on multiple pics without going each individual pic and placing it there?
Hi, I attempted to do your first part of lesson - opened editor, file and the process multiple files was not an option that was highlighted, only the import options was - what am I missing? Thanks
Hi woundering what im doing wrong cause im following u step by step but when I get 2 deine brush it will not light up so I can click on it. I did it once but I trying 2 make it better.
THANK YOU for your video they are really help full. I do have a problem, when I try to resize the my log. I don't get the four corners so when I try to make it smaller or larger it creates a smugde and I am unable to resize it
Great instructional video. I'm looking to create more than one brush watermark, but every time I create a second, it seems to just overwrite the first one, maintaining the same reference number (in this case 731). I must be missing something here. Any answers out there? (PSE 12).
Hi Bob! Great review. I have PSE 12 and followed the process multiple files as you explained but for some reason the WaterMark doesn't seem to appearing once processed and saved to my destination folder. Can you help? H
Hi Hari, did you get an answer, I am having the same problem, followed the instructions but the watermark not appearing? if you did can you let me know please? thanks
I am new to PS and have the newest edition on my new Dell. I was able to do this to a folder of recently edited prom pix. It worked! However, the pictures are original size, as I do not know how to resize in PS or if I should? or need to? so the watermark is at the largest I am able to select but still seems small on the photo. Any advice on that would be great. Thank you for talking at a slow pace as I was able to follow along easily.
Lisa Cantrell-Bell Hello! I found that certain fonts are larger than others, making them appear larger on the picture when used as a watermark. You might want to try another font. :) Also, about re-sizing the picture. You could try "Crop Photo" on Guided mode. Use the drop down box where it says "Crop Box Size" to select a standard size that you would like. I tend to think about how large it will be printed as well. Hope this helps!
Assistance please.... I keep getting an error message. It keeps telling me my "Source Folder" is empty! (Yes, there are images in the folders! lol!) I have attempted multiple folder png files, jpg files doesn't matter I keep getting the same error message. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
