I have PS CS and I want to create a action that will put a water mark in the bottom right hand corner in both portrait and landscape pictures, I have heard I need to set the watermark so many pixels or % from the edges of a image, but I have no idea how to do this, can anyone tell me what I am looking for?

Thanks.

This might help, it is for CS2 but I think it could work on CS:

About half way down the page, it has a sample action and a movie.

I record a seperate action for portrait and landscape pics. You can easily sort them beforehand into seperate source folders in Windows Explorer with the dimension tab.

They even make a version for Windoze.

Rachelo, MAJOR THANKS!

The majority of the link you sent me was way over my head, and not exactly what I was looking for, but I did watch enough of it to figure out what exactly I was wanting, and I just did a test and it did work, once I do some fine tuning of it I will have exactly what I wanted.

Thanks!

Rachelo, you really made my day, it took a few seconds to get the exact thing I wanted and once I saw what I needed from that link, it was pretty simple which is a bonus.

If you come to Cybernet in Tampa in June let me know, I would love to buy you a drink or three.

You REALLY made my day after having a crappy few weeks.

That site is pretty good for PS, glad it was of help.
I might take you up the three drinks.:D
