Image Watermark

Add text watermarks to images with customizable position, font size, and opacity. Protect your images or add branding.

What is it used for?

  • Protecting photos from unauthorized use
  • Adding branding to portfolio images
  • Watermarking preview versions of stock photos
  • Adding copyright notices to images

Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Upload your image
  2. Enter watermark text
  3. Select position from the 9-point grid
  4. Adjust font size and opacity
  5. Click Convert and download

How it works

Upload an image, enter watermark text, choose position and styling, then click Convert. wasm-vips renders the text overlay onto the image.

Tips & Best Practices

  • 50-70% opacity makes watermarks visible without being too distracting
  • Bottom-right is the most common position for watermarks
  • Larger font sizes are harder to remove

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I add an image/logo watermark?

This tool supports text watermarks only. For logo watermarks, use a dedicated image editor.

What opacity should I use for watermarks?

50-70% opacity makes watermarks visible without being too distracting. For stronger protection, use 80-90%. For subtle branding, 30-40% is sufficient.

Where should I place my watermark?

Bottom-right is most common for branding. Center is best for preventing unauthorized use. Avoid corners only - they can be easily cropped out.

Privacy & Security

This tool uses wasm-vips (libvips compiled to WebAssembly). The WASM binary (~5MB) is downloaded on first use and cached by your browser. All image processing happens locally on your device - your images are never uploaded to any server. This makes it safe for sensitive, private, or confidential images.
