Copyright Watermark

Add A Copyright Watermark Pattern To A Photo With Photoshop

Written by Steve Patterson. In this Photoshop tutorial, we’re going to learn how to easily add a copyright watermark pattern to a photo. If you’re one of the many digital photographers or designers who are using the web these days either to show a client the work you’ve done for them or to show off your portfolio, one of the major concerns is that someone out there is going to steal your work. And while there’s no guarantee that anything you do will stop them, there are things we can do to make life more difficult for them. One of those things is to add a copyright watermark to your images, and in this Photoshop tutorial, we’re going to see how easy it is to do.

We’ll use this photo as our example:

Let’s say this was a photo I took for a client and I want to show it to them as a proof. Before I go showing it to them or anyone else, I’m going to first take a couple of minutes and add my copyright information as a watermark across the image.

Step 1: Open A New Blank Document With A Transparent Background

Go up to the File menu at the top of the screen and select New… to bring up the New Document dialog box. I’m going to enter 6 inches for the width, 4 inches for the height, and 300 pixels/inch for the resolution. For Background Contents, make sure you set it to Transparent by clicking on the down-pointing arrow and selecting it from the list:

Photoshop’s New Document dialog box.

Click OK, and the new blank document appears:

Step 2: Type Your Copyright Information

Grab your Type tool from the Tools palette or by pressing T on your keyboard. Then press D on your keyboard to set black as your foreground color if it isn’t already, and enter your copyright information.

To access the copyright symbol “©”, press Option-G on a Mac, or hold down the Alt key on Windows and enter0169 on the numeric keypad. I’ll enter “© 2007 Patterson Photography”:

Typing my copyright information.

Step 3: Rotate The Text With Free Transform

The copyright watermark tends to look better with the text rotated a bit, so once you’ve entered your text, pressCtrl+T (Win) / Command+T (Mac) to bring up the Free Transform handles around your text, then place your mouse cursor just outside one of the corner handles and drag left or right with your mouse to rotate the text. Hold down the Shift key as you drag to rotate in nice, even increments:

Press Enter (Win) or Return (Mac) to apply the rotation when you’re done.

Step 4: Trim The Document Around The Text

Go up to the Image menu next and select Trim. This brings up the Trim dialog box. We want to trim away all the extra space around the text, and since all the extra space is made up of transparent pixels, select the first option at the top of the Trim dialog box, Transparent Pixels:

Photoshop’s “Trim” dialog box.

Click OK, and Photoshop trims away all the extra space around the text:

The extra space around the text is now gone.

Step 5: Define The Text As A Pattern

Go up to the Edit menu at the top of the screen and select Define Pattern. We’re going to create a pattern out of our copyright information. The Pattern Name dialog box appears:

Photoshop’s “Pattern Name” dialog box.

Name your new pattern “copyright” and then click OK.

Step 6: Close The Copyright Document

We’ve done everything we need to do with our copyright document, so go ahead and close out of it at this point, leaving just your original image open on the screen.

Step 7: Add A New Layer In The Original Image Document

Back in our original image document, we currently have one layer, the Background layer, which contains our image. We don’t want to add our copyright information directly to the Background layer, so either click on the New Layericon at the bottom of the Layers palette or use the keyboard shortcut Shift+Ctrl+Alt+N (Win) /Shift+Command+Option+N (Mac) to create a new layer above the Background layer, which Photoshop names “Layer 1″:

Click the New Layer icon at the bottom of the Layers palette or use the keyboard shortcut to add a new layer above the Background layer.

Step 8: Fill The New Layer With The Copyright Pattern

With our new layer selected in the Layers palette, go up to the Edit menu at the top of the screen and select Fill, which brings up the Fill dialog box. For “Contents”, click on the down-pointing arrow and select Pattern from the list:

Choose “Pattern” as the Fill contents.

Then, with Pattern selected, click on the little thumbnail image beside the words Custom Pattern and then choose your copyright pattern from the list that appears. It will be the last pattern at the bottom:

Choose your copyright pattern from the list of custom patterns.

Click OK, and your new layer is filled with a repeating pattern of your copyright information:

The copyright pattern is now repeating across the image.

Step 9: Change The Blend Mode To “Overlay” and Lower The Opacity

The only problem now is that the text is too prominent. It’s blocking much of the image from view. To fix that, with the new layer selected, go up to the layer blend mode options in the top left of the Layers palette, click on the down-pointing arrow beside the word “Normal” and select Overlay from the list. Then move over to the Opacity option beside it and reduce the opacity as needed. I’m going to lower mine to 50%:

Change the blend mode to “Overlay” and lower the blend mode as needed.

And here’s my final result:

The final result with the copyright watermark.

And there we have it!

拍摄

拍摄最怕就是交流不够，你不开口说，模特又怎么会知道你想干嘛？所以大家外拍时最好还是积极点，放开点，告诉模特自己的想法。如果你说的她一时不理解，你就应该进行下一步：身体力行。 把你想要的姿势做一遍给模特看，千万不要害羞！你这么做只会增加模特队你的信任

1、手在嘴旁
2、双手抚摸头部
3、单手三角形
病症二：腰痛＋背痛

1、肩靠

    轻微的挺胸，挺腹，头稍和身体形成一定角度，性感撩人。双腿与被靠物离开一段距离，让身体形成夸张拱形，显得时尚、粗狂。
2、单手手靠

3、双手靠
   
    身体向前，向前，向前再向前，模特的身体形成C字形。

4、侧身靠

5、臀靠

HOMEMADE MOSQUITO TRAP

Modern technology has brought us many benefits, including mosquito traps that cost hundreds of dollars, but sometimes we overlook simple solutions to difficult challenges such as mosquito control. When it comes to controlling pests, research tends to focus on chemicals or concepts that can be patented. Unless someone can make a profit from an idea, the public may never become aware of it.

HOMEMADE MOSQUITO TRAP:

Items needed:

200 ml water
50 grams of brown sugar
1 gram of yeast
2-liter plastic bottle

Or US conversion:
1 cup of water
1/4 cup of brown sugar

HOW:
1. Cut the plastic bottle in half.
2. Mix brown sugar with hot water. Let cool. When cold, pour in the bottom half of the bottle.
3. Add the yeast. No need to mix. It creates carbon dioxide, which attracts mosquitoes.
4. Place the funnel part, upside down, into the other half of the bottle, taping them together if desired.
5. Wrap the bottle with something black, leaving the top uncovered, and place it outside in an area away from your normal gathering area. (Mosquitoes are also drawn to the color black.)

Change the solution every 2 weeks for continuous control
