What is Image Watermark?
How to Use Image Watermark
Upload an image by dragging it into the drop zone or clicking to browse. Type your watermark text in the text field. Customize the appearance using the controls: font size, color, opacity (0-100%), and position (center, top-left, top-right, bottom-left, bottom-right, or tiled across the entire image). The preview updates in real time. Click "Download Watermarked Image" to save the result.

Frequently Asked Questions
What position options are available?▼
You can place the watermark in the center, any of the four corners (top-left, top-right, bottom-left, bottom-right), or tiled across the entire image in a repeating pattern.
Can I adjust the watermark transparency?▼
Yes. The opacity slider lets you set transparency from fully transparent (0%) to fully opaque (100%). A typical watermark uses 30-50% opacity to be visible without overwhelming the image.
Does the watermark permanently modify my image?▼
The watermark is applied to the downloaded copy. Your original file is never modified. However, the downloaded watermarked image does have the text permanently embedded — it cannot be easily removed.
Can I add an image/logo watermark?▼
This tool supports text watermarks only. For image-based watermarks (logos), you would need a more advanced image editor.
