Watermark type

Single corner vs. tiled: which actually protects your photos?

A single watermark in a corner looks cleaner and is less distracting, but it's also trivial to remove — anyone can crop it out or cover it with a small patch, since it only occupies a small, predictable area. A tiled watermark repeated across the whole image is far more resistant to that kind of removal, since taking it out means editing every section of the photo, not just one corner. If the goal is genuinely protecting a photo from being lifted and reused without credit — a portfolio piece, a client proof, stock photography — tiled is the more effective choice, even though it's more visually intrusive. If the goal is just a subtle brand mark on your own casual photos, a single corner placement at low opacity is usually the better-looking option.

Frequently asked questions

Is this watermarker really free?

Yes, completely free with no sign-up and no limit on how many photos you watermark.

Does the same watermark apply to every photo?

Yes — set it up once and it applies to every photo in your batch, so all your images stay consistent.

Can I use a logo image instead of text?

Yes — upload a logo image and it's used the same way text would be, including with the tiled or single placement option.

What opacity should I use?

Low enough that it doesn't distract from the photo itself, high enough that it can't be easily edited out — somewhere around 20–40% is a common balance, though this depends heavily on the photo's own contrast and colors.

Do my photos get uploaded anywhere?

No. Everything happens locally in your browser — your images are never sent to a server.
