Price Paid:  $30.00 from online

Summary:

I rated this product a 5, which may seem generous to some people seeing how it is a lightweight product that only does one thing. However, it is very specific product to address a very specific need, and it fulfils that need very well.

It basically adds "watermarks" to images, either individually or in batch. Watermarks can be created from other images, text, filenames, or exif data.

I frequently take pictures of special events, where I end up with hundreds of pictures. Before uploading them to the internet, I want to put a semi-transparent logo on them. This software does it, and does it well.

Strengths:

Wizard interface makes it easy to create watermarks, or load saved ones.
Works very quickly, watermarking hundreds of files in batch mode
Watermarks can be rotated, tiled, and have various other adjustments applied to them, such as drop shadows, gradients, etc...
Very reasonably priced!

Weaknesses:

The interface is a bit clunky. I thought it lacked a critical feature - to adjust the opacity of an image watermark, until I got a reply back from them explaining how it is done.

Turns out, there is a window of various options on the right side of the main window, but I only saw the top two options. That window scrolls, showing many other options (including an opacity setting) that were scrolled off the screen.

Similar Products Used:

I used Breeze Browser for this same feature, but only got one use out of it before the 15 day trial period ended. At $70, it was more expensive than I wanted to pay for this specific feature. However, it had other features that I did not really need anyway.

Customer Service:

The sales support staff actually followed up with me asking how I liked the product and if there was any feature I needed that it did not support. I inquired about a missing feature that I needed and they responded quickly. The product had the feature all along, I just didnt know how to access it. (read the part about the clunky interface above)
