Question
Hi,
I know in Photoshop there is the option to embed a watermark. However I am not looking for the visible water mark (ruins the quality of the picture) but an embedded / encoded one. Which is a watermark that is encoded into the file itself. Now the problem is that I use photoshop at school so I do not have any register or serial info. And in order to use the Photoshop watermark tool one must input their ID. Which I don't have. Do you know anyway I can add a watermark or a different program I can use? Something free would be preferred.

Thanks
~John

just learned something,

they will tell you how. I think you have buy the personalization, but you can just add the year if you want. But, I don't see where asking you about the serial number and what not.

now, you're not supposed to be watermarking stuff with school gear. The work technically isn't a money making endeveor...as your not supposed to be making money with those programs (even though NO ONE follows this), so don't push it if you can't watermark it...or go on someone else's computer and do it. But ya, the only thing I see that you have to buy is your personalization.
