I use Mac OS X 10.3.9, iPhoto 5, and PSE2. I also have a dot Mac website and regularly upload images directly from iPhoto 5 to the homepage. I would like to add a copyright line to each of my images, but after reading about copyright, Digimark and Watermarks in the PSE2 Glossary and Index, I am still stumped as to a (relatively) easy way to do this. What I want is something visible in the corner of each photograph to show I created the photos.

I sometimes also use Galerie to upload images to my website and it has a field to easily add a Copyright line to each image, but I cannot, for the life of me, see an easy way to add this in iPhoto 5 or in PSE2. In a perfect world, I would like to even have an image of my signature and place that as the ‘copyright’ – I’d be happy with that – just something on my pictures to show that I created the photographs.

Any help most appreciated.

Thanks,
Rachel.

I’ve seen similar questions asked and answered, so I did a forum search for "copyright brush". Here’s a link to another thread, and it may contain all the information you need. Try it, and if you have any trouble executing, just repost. You might also want to do a forum search to see if you can pick up any better ideas. I’ve never done this, but I think creating a brush to use on each image is the fastest and easiest way to accomplish what you want.
