photoshop tuto_waterMark

In this tutorial I'm going to show you how to easily create a signature and watermark it in your photos with photosop cs5


First, I'm gonna start to open a new file and calle it waterMark. Try to keep the settings as they are.

As you notice a new layer is created and it's locked,

If we need to work on it we have to unlock this layer by double-clicking it

I'm going to keep every thing as default and click ok. The background layer is no more locked so I can work on it now.

Now let's select the brush tool

 I choose the chalk 60 pixels and I set the size of the brush to maximum

You are free to chose any color you want

Create this background image by simply clicking somewhere on the page, you will get something like this
Now let's add some text

Choose the horizontal type text tool and simply click on the page

You can write your name or pseudo or whatever you like but before deselecting the text go ahead and click this button

It allows us to easily manipulate  our text.

Choose one of these styles,

Our text has the shape of a fish and that's pretty cool, isn't it!!
Now let's try to put some water on our text !!

Then  click the layer style in the bottom of the layers window. Choose the blending option.

Click on all of the drop shadow, inner shadow , outer glow, inner glow and the bevele and emboss check-box. You can change the settings or use the default settings.

Before clicking ok go back to the blending option and change the fill opacity to 0%

et Voila!! your water-marked signature is there!

Thanks for your attention,
MAZEN :))
