Creating A Watermark In Photoshop CS4

You can create your own watermark to your image in a matter of minutes by using your mouse.

Select File, New and create the width and height using 250X125 px.  You will also need to have a background that is transparent.

Select the “Horizontal Type Tool”, set you color to your choosing and type in what you want your watermark image to read.

Using the Ctrl button, also press the letter “T” keys on the text and choose the rotate command.  With your mouse, go over the image and rotate it to what you want.

Select Edit, Define Pattern and give it a sample name since it is a sample and not the real thing; you’re testing this technique first to make sure it works.

If you have other images or photos that you want to do this with, open the file that you want to watermark.  Apply a new layer by pressing the Ctrl and the letter “J” keys.  Select the Edit and Fill commands.  Choose a pattern from the Custom Pattern selection box.  You can set the layer’ opacity to what you want it to be.  Save the new image with the watermark.
