Photoshop - toggle the actions palette, hit new and record. Place your watermark, resize, save. Then use the automate/batch function. I would make duplicate folder of your pictures and use that, so that when you resize and save them you will still have a copy of the original set. That's it in a nutshell. Use PS help and look for "action" and "batch resize", you will get an exact step by step procedure.

Yes, but theres an option in batch to save them in a new folder so you dont have to duplicate the originals. Destination>folder>create.

Would it be helpful to do a tutorial on actions in PS?

Enormous helpful! images/smilies/smile.gif

Shadowness · July 15th, 2007, 05:03 PM

Ok, I will start writing one up images/smilies/smile.gif

I guess for photography the most useful actions would be related to doing stuff to multiple photos, such as:
- resize
- watermark
- basic curves/levels adjustment
- adding a border

Just ideas for the tutorial, since you are going to write it. images/smilies/smile.gif

edit: damn, didn't notice you were so quick and already made the thread! images/smilies/smile.gif

lol, well I hope it makes sense. It can be difficult to undersand, but hopefully it's ok!

I was wondering...how to make a watermark anyway?! Let's say, a fingerprint and a name bellow...

help will be appreciated!

Shadowness · July 17th, 2007, 08:27 AM

Well the design is up to you, but remember to make it on a transparent background, so when you copy it onto the photo you wont see a white background.

Use an image editor with the ability to do macros.

Would IrfanView work?
