Thank you Robin, just subscribed. I installed Affinity photo suite with their special offer this weekend so haven’t had time to engage with the software yet, thought it best to find a channel that would help me better understand the concept and the way of thinking for it first. So pleased that the algorithm brought me here. Recon i’ll be a regularly watcher and learner moving going by the first few videos i’ve watched. I must say that I like your teaching style and methodology, you frame it, not blast through it, it’s how I work too as a former Teacher and lecturer. I’m a wannabe youtuber too! Thanks again.

Thank you so much for your clear, concise and easy to follow instructions about how to create a brush AND a watermark! :)

Thanks for this clever approach. And I agree, that in principle "watermarking" to prevent theft generally makes the photo pretty ugly, whereas "copyright/signature" watermarking is valuable for visibility and recognition. I guess the ideal way to do this is to use the brush watermark in a macro to automatically add the layer. That also makes it possible to customize the blend mode and intensity of the watermark. Next stop: automatically apply this watermark to a batch of photos and then I'm super happy.

The move tool is indispensable and this video showed me some tricks I had no idea existed. Thank you!

oh... that idea andworkflow could speed up my: signing my painting process. i will give this a go for sure!

Excellent and very easy to follow. Well described...👍

Fantastic. I'll try and struggle through this on the next rainy day.

Thanks for this Robin, will be giving this a go

Thank you for this tutorial. Helped me a lot!

Really appreciate the tutorial. Thank you!

Great video and information, especially about the copyright, I've been telling and showing people this for years. Use the watermark to advertise and not protect. Many thanks

Great video

Dank je wel voor de goede uitleg!!!

Thank you so much, this tutorial is super!

Thanks for the great tutorial Robin. Please can you tell me how you highlighted and magnified the area around your mouse pointer? Many thanks.

Thank you.

brilliant, Sir, thank you!!

Robin, great lesson. If you can answer... any way to add a semi-transparent box behind the customer watermark brush? I created my own using your steps but on some photos it won't stand out without a little box behind it. Thank you

The tutorial was very good, but in the future please include what version of the product is being used. I just installed Affinity Photo 2 as a new user. It looks very different from the version shown here. Some of the features on my version were difficult to find.

Interesting approach, I'd never have thought of using a brush! I just have a PNG file that I paste in as a layer and use that. But a brush would be easier, I'll give it a go.

Great Fantastic love it

I've watched a few KZfaq videos showing how to create a watermark and many use different techniques, but yours is the best (of course) as it gives much greater control over the finished product. However, I take photos at events for the local city council with a camera club and the council makes a sizeable donation to the club for these photos. The photos can run to well over 100 and adding a watermark one-by-one is tedious, to say the least. A macro seems the best option to add the watermark to all photos using batch processing. The only problem with this is that the macro adds the watermark right in the middle of the photo, rather than the bottom right hand corner where I want it. Is there a way to do this?

Great video but i must be a dummy today because I cant figure out how to save the watermark. you mentioned keyboard short cut but just cant figure it out. I will keep tying though. Ron

when I do it in affinity photo 2 appears for every letters so much nodes near each other that it makes impossible to work

Loved the video, is there a way to change the colours of the brush? Cheers

Thank you so much for this amazing video, i am so close to finishing my first watermark. I gotta ask, at 5:49, my background isn't transparent, instead it whites out when i omit the black background.

Robin, is it possible to change the watermark text color after it is created as brush? I like to adjust my text colors to work with the background colors of the photo, so as not to overwhelm my photo subject, but this color would change depending on the photo. I was hoping to insert the custom brush as a new pixel layer and then adjust its color. Any ideas? Wonderful video by the way.

how do i delete the custom brushes i created as i have tried to do this a few times and have a few brushes now with the same name and a number after it

Hi. Thanks for the tutorial. Unfortunately, I’ve gone through this process several times now and when I come to add the watermark to the image, I click the brush tool, a large white box appears. When I then select my watermark and drag it across, it won’t stick, it just flies back into the right hand window. Can you please advise what I am clearly doing incorrectly? Thanks

Thank you sir

when trying this out i downloaded the font but could not import it. any chance you could do a video or explain it. thanks

Great approach and easy to do, thanks. Is it possible to change the colour of your watermark, like you can with any other brush?

nice watermark, but how do you import it into AP?

👏
