What you described here works fine for small amouts of images. However, I frequently have to do this on several (somtimes hundreds) of images at a time. Is the Photoshop "scripting" process up to this kind of task? I’m just experimenting with it and am not sure if it’s practical or not.
I have made a script for watermarking my images.
Although all my images are the same resize, 520 in height irrespective of orientation, and used for my web page.
Basically what I am doing is a resize, watermark, flatten, save for web, resize to thumbnail, save for web. All in one action. You have to setup the basic folders within the action so you actually have the original image folder then the resized and thumb folders.
This action can be used through the batch process and its a simple matter and very quick.
All this without looking for some other program.

I have scanned in some pencil drawings of mine into photoshop and want to digitally watermark them (visably) before posting them on the web. Can someone tell me the best PC application or web service for doing this? How secure is the watermarking…..what is the percentage of security that basic watermarking provides?
As you already have Photoshop
make a new document
use the text tool to create some letters saying ©copyright symbol your name year etc
use a blocky text like Arial black
use a layer style like bevel or emboss on it
then slide the fill down to 0
this should give you some transparent letters with depth save it as a psd
drag it onto your other images as needed or make and action to do that
if you are not up on creating your own styles you can download laurie’s glass at Adobe studio exchange
