For this I use a program called gimp which is available free from here http://www.gimp.org/
This is how I use it
Click file, then open as layers then choose the image you want to use from your files
Click on the large black A in the toolbox on the left of the screen this will bring up a gimp text editor box
Move the mouse curser over the image and click and drag out a box the size you want the text to be then type your text into the
Gimp text editor box. then click on the close button.
On the left hand side tool bar use the text tools to choose the font and font size you want and the colour you want your text to be. I use white as it is neutral
But that’s just my preference.
On the right hand tool bar as shown above drag the opacity bar to the left and this will fade out the text on your image play around until you get the level you like.
Once you are happy with this click on SAVEAS as you would usually, then this box should open
Click on Export then this box should open
And there you have your finished signature/watermark.
Hope this is helpful
