You can also click the circular buttons on the logo to stretch it as much as you like. If your logo is already well-prepared, it’s done; if you want to add a little effect, try tweaking it in the editing panel. It can cast shadows as well.

You have finished editing the image logo, then let’s go to the step of saving the image.

How to add a logo with text to a photo

And if you do not have a logo or have a logo but do not like to use it for your article, you can use the same word. (Revealing a bit the reason why I don’t use the photo logo because, in the future, the image logo may change, but the text will not affect anything, hehe) .

You click the plus sign ( + ) in the Insert section and then select Text to add the text logo to the image.

Write the text you like, then also adjust the position of the logo pin. But especially with text, you have more options to customize the effect. Customize the color and font in the red circled bar in the image.

Then add a little effect to it, and it’s beautiful. Take a look in the More Options section :

  • Transform: curved text effect.
  • Outline: text border.
  • Drop Shadow: drop an open shadow under the text.
  • Outer Glow: make text glow.
  • Gradient: variable text color.

Epilogue

It must be said that using PhotoScape X to resize and add watermark to photo in bulk is very nice. The first time you edit it, but the next time you open it, it will save the previous Batch; drag the image in and click save, and you’re done. And it’s fast and free. All the online tools now require an upgrade fee but are very slow. If you see this, please leave a comment below.
