COMBb2's Watermark tool overlays customizable text watermarks on your images to protect your work before sharing. Control font size, color, opacity, position, and rotation. Use tiled mode for full-image coverage that's difficult to crop out. All processing runs in your browser - your original images are never uploaded.

Common Use Cases

  • Portfolio protection
    Add your name or studio brand to photos before sharing in portfolios or galleries.
  • Client proofs
    Watermark preview images sent to clients before payment or final approval.
  • Social media branding
    Add your brand name or handle to images shared on social platforms.
  • Stock photo marking
    Apply watermarks to preview images in stock photo collections.
  • Copyright assertion
    Visually mark your ownership on images shared publicly.

How It Works

The tool renders text directly onto a canvas copy of your image. You can customize the text content, font size, color, opacity, and positioning (center, corner, or tiled). Tiled mode repeats the watermark across the entire image at a configurable angle, making it resistant to cropping.

Why Privacy Matters Here

Professional photographers and designers need to watermark client work, portfolio pieces, and copyrighted content. Cloud watermark services require uploading your original, un-watermarked images - the very files you're trying to protect. COMBb2 watermarks locally, so your originals never leave your device.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best opacity for a watermark?+
For proofs and previews, 30-50% opacity is visible enough to deter theft while allowing the image to be evaluated. For portfolio protection, 15-25% is more subtle. Use the preview to find the right balance for your needs.
Can I add an image/logo watermark?+
Currently, the tool supports text watermarks only. For logo watermarks, consider using a design tool to composite your logo onto images.
What is tiled mode?+
Tiled mode repeats your watermark text across the entire image in a diagonal grid pattern. This makes it very difficult to crop or clone-stamp out the watermark, providing stronger protection than a single centered watermark.
Can I watermark multiple images at once?+
Yes. Pro users can use batch processing to apply the same watermark to an entire folder of images in one session.
Are my original images uploaded?+
No. Watermarking happens entirely in your browser. Your original, un-watermarked images never leave your device - which is exactly the point.
