Title: How to put your name on Pics...?
Post by: Al Kidner on January 16, 2009, 08:50:00 AM

G'day all,

 I'm just wanting to know how to put my name on the bottom of pics I take with my Canon 450D?

The camera comes with a program called Zoom Brower EX and I cannot seem to work out how to do it.

Many thanks,

ak.

Hy there, you cant do that in Zoom Brower EX program. But you can use other programs wich can handle layers. One of programs like that is Photoshoop ... and many more. Its quite simple. I can tell you for photoshop, you setup one empty picture with no background and write your name on it... Than copypaste that picture in photoshoop across your original picture. Since your signiture picture is transparent you will only see signiture across original. Hope it helps.

You can upload them to Photobucket and use their edit function to imbed the text of your name onto the picture.

Thats the simplest, cheapest way I know, seeing as how its free. lol

Two simple ones are ACDsee(photo manager)costs $50 and well worth it. I'm a big fan of ACDsee. Real simple short cuts and tools to common preformed tasks. And it doesn't take a life time to learn like Adobe Photoshop.

And Picture Shark is an other one that does watermarks and is free.
