Color Watermark Best Practices
Color watermarks use a specific text color to maximize visibility and match your branding. Black Text works best on light images and bright backgrounds where it provides strong contrast.
Branding consistency: Choose a watermark color that aligns with your brand palette. Using the same color across all watermarked images creates a consistent, professional look for portfolios and galleries.
Before watermarking: Adjust your image's color and exposure first, then apply the watermark. This ensures the watermark color contrasts properly with the final image, not an unedited version.
