Whether you love them or hate them, watermarks are a thing and some people want it to be a bit more personal than just a logo. Sometimes, they really want to “sign” it. But how?

But not only does Jesús show us how we can digitise our signature properly for placing on top of an image, but he also shows us how we can create an action within Photoshop to automatically apply it to our images with just a single click.

Watch Jesús Ramirez from the Photoshop Training Channel explain in this video with some great easy to understand demonstrations.
