Nowadays, watermarks have become a fundamental element for photographers who want to protect their images from falling into the “wrong hands” on the internet. Above all, they are designed to protect your work, and to ensure that your pictures aren’t used without your permission.  But they are also used to sign your creations (just like artists sign their work).

Sometimes you might decide not to use them, so you don’t “disturb” or “stain” one of your pictures with a mark that can sometimes spoil the great work. Or because you’re not too bothered if people use some of your photographs (without your permission). The choice is yours.

But if you decide to include watermarks on your photographs, below we show you various options about the different types of watermarks that are most-used by Arcadina users.

“Watermarks are your best option when it comes to protecting your photographs on the internet.”
