Comments on: Video – Watermarking your Photos

I have been looking for hours, here is what I want to do.
I want to create an embossed watermark in photoshop – transparent background – saved as a png

SO THAT…

I can use it in lightroom, upload it as a graphical watermark, and go to town.

again…embossed, transparent background, simply made from my choice of text…to be saved as a png…then to be used in lightroom for batch watermarking.

every photoshop tutorial I found wants to show me how to imprint a watermark directly onto a photo…NO

every lightroom tutorial I found wants to show me how to make a plain text or graphic watermark that is simply a little more opaque than normal…NO

I hope I’m being clear because this is frustrating and I need HELP.

please and thank you.

I’m using the new Watermark feature and am having trouble with the watermark coming out all pixelated. Anyone else having this issue?

I’m outputting images 250 pixels in size and my watermark is 900 pixels. I’ve tried larger watermark sizes and smaller all with the same result — a super pixelated watermark. The images themselves are perfect. It’s only the watermark that I’m having issues with.

I’m creating the watermark in photoshop and then save-as to PNG format.

Any thoughts?

Why is that the metadata is deleted upon exporting jpeg via slideshow? is there a way to avoid that?

thanks!

Here we are on Lightroom 2.5 with no easy way to export with watermark. LR2/Mogrify is the way to go. I wrote a blog on how to create, then export a watermark.

Video doesn’t really work. It stops all of a sudden. Or is it only me…?

Thanks, for the information. I spent a couple of hour last night trying get an output with watermarks. Like others, I would like a one-button solution.
Keep up the good work. Maybe, Adobe should hire the guy or licensing it in a bundle (..S technique).

Thank you for this helpful tip. I just started using Lightroom and this is such a useful feature despite the clunkiness.

Tanya,

You must be using Lightroom 1. The Export to JPG option in Slideshow is only in Lightroom 2.

For those interested in giving LR2Mogrify a try I’ve a more in depth tutorial on how to use it a couple of different ways:
