Adding a Translucent Copyright Watermark

[gmitchel]

The new "Tip of the Week" on my site describes how to add an embossed Layer Style that you can use to add a transparent watermark to your image: copyright, logo, studio name, etc.

Unlike some other methods, this one uses custom shapes. It shows you how to convert a text layer into a shape layer. That way, you can reuse the same text over and over and the text will resize without degrading.

Enjoy!

I ran across this one not too long ago and gave it a go. It works pretty well and is quick.
