Protect your images with custom text watermarks. Choose position, color, opacity, rotation, and tile mode - with a live preview that updates instantly.
Tip: Click or drag anywhere on the preview to position the watermark precisely. Enable Tile and set Rotation to −25° for a classic diagonal pattern.
The bottom-right corner is the most common placement for single watermarks - visible yet unobtrusive. For maximum protection use Tile mode with a −25° rotation: text repeats diagonally across the entire image and cannot be cropped out. For product photos a center overlay at 15–25% opacity deters copying without spoiling the view.
30–50% opacity is the sweet spot - visible on both light and dark backgrounds. Below 20% the mark can be removed in Photoshop. Above 70% it starts to distract from the photo itself. Use the live preview to find the right balance before downloading.
White works on most photos. For light-coloured images (snowy scenes, product shots on white) switch to black or dark gray. Gold and red stand out well on fashion or food photography. The tool adds a subtle drop-shadow automatically so the text stays legible regardless of the background colour.
Enable Tile mode and set Rotation to −25° (or any angle) for the classic diagonal repeating pattern used by stock photo agencies and portrait photographers. The pattern is computed server-side so it tiles perfectly across the entire image.
