Including signature in pictures

Zapican29

Hi guys! I would like to include my signature (or at least my name) in my pictures. I know how to include the name for copyrights purposes, but not how to show the name in the actual pictures. I would appreciate any help. Thank you !

I don't think there's any way to do this in the camera. As you note, you can put that info in the EXIF file, but not on the image itself.

For basic print overlay, many programs can do this, but changing color and size can be a nuisance. A free program such as Irfanview will allow you to place a standard windows font message on top of a JPG file. That's quick and easy as you can specify the basic location of the message and the content persists when you re-run the program until you change it.

For a more versatile signature, programs that use layers, such as Photoshop, are probably better.

Here's a link with one way to do it:
