How do I remove "watermark"?

488 views10 repliesLast post: 1/8/2004
I am using PhotoShop CS, and I had gone under File, Automate, Web Photo Gallery, and the very first time I used it, I luckily hit the right commands and PhotoShop automatically created a thumbnail, and allowed me to watermark my photo (I do remember typing it in), but for the life of me, I tried to just put a particular event I photographed out to my web without the watermark this morning, and I just do not see what I would do to just put the photo out there "non - watermarked"......can anyone help me here?

Thank You So Very Much

if it's part of the image (and the image is flattened) your only hope is to use the clone, healing and patch tools and carefully erase it. or are you talking about something like digimarc?

No, I am talking about when I put the image onto my webpage, when I go to batch. I made it resize and watermark but now I need some without the watermark on the web page so how do I do it without the watermark. Thank you.

If you just need the one, you can do it separately, if you want to do more create a batch action that does not put a watermark on the photos.

Like I said in post #1, if you didn't save an original, you'll need to carefully do this by hand with the clone, healing and patch tools.

You should ALWAYS save an unedited original (Preferrably as a PSD, TIF or PNG file). Not only for this reason, but if you save it as a JPG then reopen, edit and REsave as a JPG, you're going to lose image quality because JPG is a "lossy" format. Meaning it discards pixels every time you save to make the image smaller. The 3 file types I mentioned above are not "lossy" in providing their compression.

Hmm... rereading your question, it's a little unclear.

and I just do not see what I would do to just put the photo out there "non - watermarked

DO you have a non watermarked version of the image? If so, you just upload it to your server (FTP?) with the same name as the watermarked version, overwriting it.

If it's for web, ostensibly, it's a JPG or a Gif. If you put in a watermark, you flattened the image since those formats doen't support layers. It is now a part of the image and cannot easily be removed. Clone tool is the way to do it.

You're better off starting with your originals again.

You should ALWAYS save an unedited original

Sage advice.

Peace,

Funny. You spend too much time in the kitchen.

I don't know the answer to your question. But it looks like you need to ask it again. nobody seemed to understand what you really want to do.
