Dan, very detailed explanation of this process. Thank you. One question – I have seen it before but not sure where to find it now. How did you shift the Masking Panel to the left side. And how did you change the pressets from small icons to a list? Thanks Much.

Thanks for showing us how to put a light background on the watermark so it shows up better! Excellent explanation, especially for a newbie like me.

Very succinct description and illustration of this process. Is there any way to lightly colorize the text, though? Thanks. Diana

Perfect presentation. No Leica or any other product placement, and no mention of your latest travel photography. Perfect. Thank you!

Thanks for showing us how to do that. I’ve been wanting to do that for sometime and didn’t want to pay some company $60 to produce a signature watermark. Thanks again!

Excellent! Didn’t know there was a place to save the watermarks I already have. Thanks Dan.

One small step you missed and that’s on the export. The user will need to select Logo or Text to see the Logo section and options that you showed on the screen.

Thank you, Dan. I created and used watermarks in Lightroom and Photoshop they are already saved as .png files. So all I should need to do is bring them into ON1. A very useful video to help with my transition from subscription-based Adobe products. ON1 is awesome.
