Easy Watermark Studio Lite

Although you can easily grab any picture from the web using any web browser, it doesn’t mean they’re yours once located on your hard disk drive. A common theft prevention method for images is to apply a watermark, representing an overlay that’s difficult to ignore or remove. If you want to apply this method to your own pictures, then Easy Watermark Studio Lite is sure to get the job done.

On the visual side of things, the application wraps all of its features in a modern, flat interface. Most of the space is used as an interactive preview area for pictures you load, which are stored and shown in a side panel, while the rest of controls are found throughout different tabs in an upper toolbar.

As designed and intended, watermarks can either be under the form of text, or transparent images and logos. This application lets you add both types to any of your images. To load them, you can either use the browse dialog for multiple files or entire folder content, or just drag them over the main window. Supported formats include TIF, JPG, and BMP.

Each watermark type is added on an extra layer. These can be created, viewed and edited through the upper panel, while selecting one brings up its corresponding set of options. Both image and text layers come with different tabs to let you carefully position, edit, add effects, and other management options.

Editing is rather easy, with the possibility to either use the mouse on the preview area to move the watermark object around, or take advantage of the intuitive move buttons. Customization is pretty abundant for both pictures and text.

Scrolling through the various tabs, you are able to add shadows of different color and transparency, make the text glow, enable grid arrangement with custom positioning, or even have it placed in a random spot. Moreover, effect settings can be changed as profiles to be applied later on with a single mouse click.

When you’re done, don’t just rush to press the Start button. It’s best to pay a visit to the Output Settings tab in order to choose format, such as BMP, JPG, PNG, GIF, TIF, and PDF, image quality, whether or not to resize, as well as name and destination. The process is done in a jiffy and you’re even offered to have the output folder opened.

Images can easily get stolen over the web, and chances are you’re investing a large amount of time and effort into a personal creation. This is where Easy Watermark Studio Lite comes in handy and lets you add your personal touch or logo in the blink of an eye, and with just a few mouse clicks.
