p.1 #1 · How do I.............


create a label/watermark that would have the name of my photography business as well as the copyright symbol and 2008? Can that be made into an action? I have never built an action so this is all very new to me.

Thanks!

Do you use anything like Lightroom or Aperture? I've found that adding my watermark in Aperture is easier to set up than creating an action in Photoshop.

basically create a new action, start recording, then type your text as you want it to appear. Then stop the action and now when you click that action the text will appear. You can then resize and move it. Its also possible to have the action position it in a certain place regardless of the image size or orientation.

For more info on making actions, google it. There are a ton of videos and tutorials.

Thanks for this information.

I've been wanting to learn how to do this myself.

if you are a newbie to photoshop, go to lynda.com and spend $25 for a month membership. You will learn SO MUCH more than you thought was possible. They cover the basics to more advanced features and are all very quick and simple videos. I sometimes think I'll skip a section because I think I know it...every time I learn something. Very well done videos, very educational and very user friendly format. Check it out: www.lynda.com
