Is there a possibility to make a watermark with GIMP ?
Or I should download some other program?
iWatermark ? Faststone?

sth else? Whats the difference between them?

I want it to be free. I have no Photoshop.

It is possible. Let me look in to it, and experiment a bit with GIMP. It should not be that easy. I"ll come back later with some answers.
Best regards,

Martin.

I don't know if you can do this with gimp, but in ps you can make your watermark, simplify the layer, and save it as a "brush" that you can then use to stamp your image rather quickly...
Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

Thanks Peter.
I will try.


Until that one more question: is there any place for noise reduction in Gimp too. Have not noticed such in menus (that doesnt mean anything of course) - does it need some plugin as well ?

I have got some 800 iso pics, that I do not like at all

Noise reduction is found under filters----->noise-------->several options (in GIMP 2.6)

I do not catch the idea there. It seems to me there everything makes the noise greater

PS. But I got the Watermark to work

Sorry Aiki, my mistake it's found under filters, enhance,several options.
GREYCstoration seems the most appropriate. I don't use it in GIMP. So I wouldn't know if it works well.

Thanks Martin,

I hope it will be a help.

My husband is more home with different kinds of downloadings. He wanted to do me a favour and downloaded the variant of GIMP in Estonian forgetting that all my possibilities to learn are in english Until now I have survived...but here I give up. Maybe there are some basic differences as well. (although I have 2.6.6) I ask him to replace it with English one.
It will not happen before tomorrow. So I will give a new try then.

it isn't that simple Aiki.
I think you need to throw away all language files of the program except English, he will use that then because of shortage of something else.
