Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between text and image watermarks?
Text watermarks let you add custom text (like your name, website, or copyright notice) with customizable fonts and colors. Image watermarks allow you to overlay a logo or graphic file onto your image. Both types can be positioned, scaled, and adjusted for opacity.
What format should my watermark logo be in?
For best results, use a PNG file with a transparent background. This allows your logo to blend seamlessly with the image. JPG files will work but will have a solid background around the logo.
Where should I position my watermark?
The bottom-right corner is the most common position as it's visible but not intrusive. For maximum protection against cropping, consider placing the watermark in the center with reduced opacity. The best position depends on your image composition and purpose.
Is my image uploaded to a server?
No! All processing happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript and the Canvas API. Your images never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy and security for your content.
