Image Watermark

What is an image watermark?

An image watermark is text or a logo laid over a picture to show who created or owns it. A clear, semi-transparent caption such as a name, copyright line, or website discourages others from reusing your work without credit and helps people trace an image back to you. This tool draws your chosen text directly onto the photo on an HTML canvas, so the watermark becomes part of the exported file rather than a separate overlay.

How to add a watermark to an image online

Watermarking a photo with ToolsSoup takes just a few seconds:

1. Click Choose an image and select the photo you want to watermark.
2. Type your watermark text, then pick a position, size, color, and opacity.
3. Turn on Tile (repeat) if you want the watermark stamped diagonally across the whole image.
4. Choose an output format (PNG, JPEG, or WebP), click Add watermark, and download the result.

Tiled watermarks for stronger protection

A single corner watermark is easy to crop out, so for images you really want to protect, enable Tile (repeat). The tool then stamps your text diagonally across the entire picture at a low opacity, making the mark much harder to remove without damaging the photo. Lower the opacity so the watermark stays readable but does not overpower the image, and bump up the text size on large photos so it remains legible after resizing for social media.
