Don\u2019t forget to “Save & Close” your new watermark settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To apply watermarks to all the images in a gallery just navigate to the gallery settings of each gallery. You can activate your watermarks in the “Security” section of your gallery settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After you hit “Apply Changes” wait for a few seconds to see the watermarks appear on each preview image in your gallery. It couldn’t be easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note:<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0the watermarks will \u201conly\u201d protect the thumbnails and previews in picdrop, so your clients can\u2019t take screenshots or steal the pictures in other ways. If you activate the download of the original images at the same time, these will not be protected by watermarks because picdrop will never modify your originally uploaded images. Please note that watermarks can only be applied to image files \u2013 they are not available for videos, documents, or any other supported file types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
