Hello,

I would like to know as to how can I water mark my pictures.

I am aware that there is a provision for water marking ones ID in Picture Manager.

But, I want to water mark those which I don't upload through Picture Manager.

Is there any Free software available on the net ?


regards

Umang Midha .

I want to put up high quality garments, bed sheets and pillow covers on ebay.

How should I photograph them. For garments - on a model, mannikin or just on the floor. What is the best background and lighting.

Hi,

There should be a provision for water mark our logos on the pictures as Umang said.

I do make some edits with softwares like ACDSee..

But every time, I can't do it as it takes me a lot of time (as I am not so good in that).

I haven't used Picture Manager till now. If these previlages are there, then I certainly subscribe them.

Good Pictures always tempt a buyer to comit for purchase. ---------------

This workshop will clash with "I know eBay contest". So, changes needed.

Ebay can change the time from 4:30 to 5:30! ---------------

Dear indconcepts,

If you are looking for a free image editing software to place watermarks, please search google for "Pixia" and download it !! Its free and its just like photoshop.

Cheers,

I do not know which camera you have.

1. If you want to blow up your photos, you need a high resolution camera which means around 5 to 8 mega pixels.

2. Go through the manual and use the close up or macro mode.

3. For metering, use the spot metering.

4. Take three or more photographs from different angles,
you will get some good photographs.
