I recently hired a graphic designer to make me a logo (SO excited!) and we are on our last draft. Apparently I get a copy as a hmmmm….. I think this is right….. .png file that will lay like a transparency over my photo. Then I just have to upload the photo with the layer of my logo on top of it, to my online sites.

I use paint.net.
so you can make the logo transparently and as layer in the photo. is very easy with the program. and it’s free.

I saw a really interesting idea, can’t remember which decorator did this, but they photographed the cakes with their business card alongside the cake.

hat I know of also.
in Germany a cake art artist presents its mascot always beside the cakes. that’s funny and you whatever who it is.

I use an iPad app called watermark pro, cost a couple of pounds but super easy to use. Depends if you have an iPad!

Prior to that I used a free android app on my phone called watermark it.

There’s an app posted by a member, can’t remember who, in the forum section on free watermark app.

The business card idea is great – as long as its close enough not to be edited out.
I have a .png of my URL and I just use MS Powerpoint to put it onto my pictures.

Heaven in paper cups!

Thank you so much I’m going to try the business card idea or failing that I do have an iPad I might look at this option xx
