Your work’s copyright is protected through watermarking, which also assures that it will not be repurposed or modified without your consent. This implies that customers may still view a sample of your work before buying it without worrying about them stealing it. It’s straightforward to add a watermark using Photoshop Elements. 

You must first construct your text and picture on a new image, making sure it is translucent. Getting it smaller is normally not an issue, but scaling it up could be. We advise making it large enough to fit any size version of an image that you may have and save it.

For the effective creation of a watermark in Photoshop Elements, follow the directions in the following sections.
