Watermarking Logos on Mac

Visual Watermark is a image watermarking tool for Mac and Windows. Since Mac-version is a much newer program, it lacks some features existing in the Window-version. One of them is the capability to add your own logotype stored as an image file.

Yesterday, we have added this capability to the Mac version too. An update is already on our website and is available as a free upgrade to all existing customers.

Download Link

To add an image to your watermark, click the Add Image button next to the Add Text button you’ve used previously. You will see an open-file dialog which allows to find and select your logo image file. Click OK and Visual Watermark will place your image onto a picture.

To change image size, use the Size slider in the Configuration window. You can select anything between 10% and 1600%. We use bilinear scaling for displaying purpose and best-quality bicubic scaling for watermarking purposes.

Please let me know what you think.

Watermark Photos or Not?

We all publish our pictures online. Some of us take their kids photos and publish them on their blog, others’ hobby is street photography and share photos on 500px or SmugMug. Making a good picture is time consuming process and they are rare. It is much easier to take somebody else’s work and use it for a website or an ad. Especially, because it is so easy now: just a couple clicks using your mouse. In most cases, the author of the photo gets no credit for her image.

And what? Doesn’t everybody download MP3s and movies from internet for free? Sometimes not.

Mac – Watermark Editor Screenshot

Here is a screencapture of a watermark editor in the mac-version of Visual Watermark.

VW for Mac - Watermark Editor

The watermark is made of two text items (pictures items aren’t ready yet), one of them is selected. Visual Watermark display a transparent panel next to the selected item with its settings: font, size, style and so on. The panel is shown very closely to the selected item to minimize mouse movements and save some seconds when editing watermarks.

We still have to finish watermark anchors, picture items and watermarking dialog to supply the first version of the program. I thinks it will be May 25 or 26 if we don’t face any unexpected troubles further. Stay tuned, I will post a download link here as soon as I have it.
