Consider that you are doing a review of any particular product, software or anything else on your site. It becomes essential to watermark your image to prevent other sites from using the same images without credit. Watermarking an image is simply adding text or a small image within the original image to indicate that you own the copyrights to the image. Watermarking could be done with Photoshop, GIMP etc.

But for those who aren’t experienced in handling such software, here is a simple tool that helps you watermark your images and provides numerous options in doing so as well. PicMarkr is a recently launched service. To start watermarking your images, you start by uploading them to the site.

You can also use images directly from your flickr account as well. A max of 5 images can be uploaded at a time, each having a size less than 5 MB. You are given the option to resize the uploaded pictures as well.

Types of Watermarking

The types of watermarking available at PicMarkr are text, image and tiled. In text watermarking, you enter some text to display on the images, select the style of the text to be displayed and also the position in the image where it should be placed.

For the image watermarking, you can upload a small logo and choose its position on the image.

Tiled watermarking means, you can display some text or a logo throughout the image. This can ensure that people don’t use your image after cutting out or blurring the part of image that has the watermark.

Once you choose your options, click Continue and the watermark is applied in a few seconds and your image gets ready. You can either download the images as a image itself, or in a zip archive. You can also upload all the images directly to your flickr account as well.
