This is an extremely useful feature and frankly is very rare - most watermark programs don’t do this.
So, keeping with the same example above, if you are putting a 200×100 watermark on an image of 100×100 size, TSR Watermark Image will automatically resize your watermark to properly fit the 100×100 image. You see TSR Watermark Image does resize watermark relative to image size. Where Image Tuner fails is actually where TSR Watermark Image succeeds. This becomes a major issue, however, when input images are not all relatively the same size and if some input images are actually smaller in size than the watermark. (BImageStudio also has this problem.) This isn’t a major issue if all your input images are larger than your watermark and they are relatively the same size. So, for example, if you have an input image of 100×100 size, Image Tuner will actually distort the image when adding a watermark instead of simply resizing the watermark to properly fit the 100×100 image. What I mean is, if you load a 200×100 watermark into Image Tuner, that same 200×100 watermark will be applied to all your images, regardless of input image size. Where Image Tuner fails is the ability to automatically resize watermark relative to image size. This isn’t important when your input images are the same format but becomes critical if you have input images of different formats. Another positive aspect to Image Tuner is the fact that it doesn’t force you to convert input images to the same output format it allows you to not use the conversion feature, so output images can retain the same input format. What makes Image Tuner better than BImageStudio is simply the fact that it allows you to control the transparency of watermarks. Image Tuner has the ability to add one image watermark to your image(s) it does not support text watermark but, as I said earlier, that is not important.

Rarely will a user want to show a watermark at full opacity, so not having the ability to increase transparency is why BImageStudio is at number three instead of one. The issue with BImageStudio, however, is it does not have the ability to modify the opacity (transparency) of watermarks. However, from these three, it is quite easy to rank them as the following:īImageStudio has the ability to add both image and text watermarks you can even add both to the same image(s), but you can only have one of each. All three of these programs pass my criteria of ability to add image watermark, support for batch processing, and being easy-to-use. So, that left TSR Watermark Image, Image Tuner, and BImageStudio. The program itself is a great image viewer, don’t get me wrong - it just isn’t a great watermark program. NET Framework 3.5.Īfter using FastStone Image Viewer to add a watermark, I also eliminated it from the running because FastStone Image Viewer’s ability to add watermarks to multiple images at once is a bit cumbersome.

Firstly, I could not test the Lite version because, when you download the program, it gives you a free 15-day trial of the Pro version secondly, it requires. uMark Lite was also eliminated due to a combination of factors. Star Watermark’s free version can only add text watermarks and JACo Watermark requires Java to be installed, which fails my last criteria. batch processing).īased on this criteria, Star Watermark and JACo Watermark were immediately eliminated.

Ability to add text watermark is a good plus but not necessary since you can essentially create a simple text image in an image editor and use that as a watermark. The same does not hold true for the above 7 watermark programs it is quite easy to determine which ones are better than the other.Īs criteria for the best watermark program out of the list, I looked for three things:

In our article on 11 free PDF creators, I noted it was hard to find the “best” program due to how similar all of the PDF printers were (are). That said, here they are - check them out: uMark Lite The last three programs do watermarking but are not specialized watermarkers. In other words, their main functionality is adding watermarks to images.
Take note, the first four of the following programs are software that specialize in watermarking. Instead, you can use any of following free watermark programs that allow you to watermark your images in batch. You could, of course, use an image editor to manually watermark images… but that is a painful process. What do you do? You watermark the images before sharing them, that way it is extremely difficult for anyone to claim your work as your own. You have some images (photos, digital art, screenshots, etc.) you want to share online but don’t want other people stealing your work.
