Hey guys,

I am doing web work for a night club at the moment. They have decided that they want to start watermarking all of the images they put. Because there is no way I am going manually to add watermarks for about 200 photos a week, do any of you know of a good solution to take care of this?

Thanks,
Truly

I know they have programs for batch watermarking images, you could probably search on google and find a free one, i mainly use gimp but as far as i know you can only watermark 1 picture at a time with gimp.

Batch watermarking with Irfan View

If you use Photoshop you can record adding the watermark to one image and create an action to batch watermark as many images as you want.

Alternatively there is a plugin available for Wordpress called NG Gallery but thats only useful if your running the site on Wordpress. I'm also working on a nightclub website at the moment and using WP

Thanks all.

I gave the irfanview a try because I love that program, but unfortunately it can only add text and not the logo. Chris is there a work around for this in Irfanview?

Xboxer that would be great but they use a premade solution (which makes everything else more difficult too haha)

Vangoh can you do that with gimp too? Otherwise I can download PS but do you know of any tutorials for this or keywords that I should google for?

Thanks all!

GIMP Scripting

IrfanView (currently) can't but there is PictureShark that can.

Photoscape is a useful tool as well, quite handy for making a proof sheet.

You can try this bulk watermark printer tool:

Thanks for the great ideas Chris. Picture Shark worked like a charm.

Those website tools are cool but unfortunately they are a little slow when you need to do 80 at a time 4 days a week

try this one i love using this http://www.easy-tools.net/batch-watermark/index.html

what graphics editor are you using?

For my PC, I tend to like ThumbsPlus from http://www.cerious.com. It's basically a visual file manager, but it does have the ability to do some batch processing (like watermarks) very easily.

Still looking for something as quick and easy as that for my Mac...

Im using WinWatermark for windows. Very easy to use and fast.

Watermarks are great & well needed. A good symbol can make a great difference for showcasing your portfolio.

There's alot of resources available, just do some good-research & you'll find a software to your liking.

Actually is there any script you can embed it directly in your website to do the job for you guys ?
