Thanks to this topic http://www.motorworld.net/forum/showthread.php?p=325001#325001 I decided to try some new style for my pics watermark...

and well, here is the prob I have :D

(looking shitty here, but just to have an idea obiviously)..
http://img50.exs.cx/img50/7555/untitled17wo.gif
added shadow and all the rest...

then I tried to simply copy and paste like I did untill now with my "standard" watermark.

http://img102.exs.cx/img102/3561/copyrightscsblack7dm.gif

But when I paste the new text on a pic I obtain this:

http://img102.exs.cx/img102/4361/untitled21jo.jpg

it just copies the bare text with no effect whatsoever.. I am sure the solution is pretty simple, but can't find it :D

I obviously tried to type and modify directly on the pic and it works:

http://img102.exs.cx/img102/8785/untitled33xp.jpg

But obviously I can't type and modify the text on every pic :P

I tried to save the watermark as a gif and copy&paste it, but looks totally shitty, basically like it looks when pasted here in the forum with cobalt as a theme..

can you help me?

Merge all the layers?

When you copy in PS, normally you just copy one of the layers, in this matter, just the text-layer.

Go to Layer -> Flatten Image

Of course I may be wrong, and you've already done this, but that's my advice..

Yep indeed, I just found out by doing "merge visible".. dumbass I am :D

flatten image won't work because you obtain a white backgorund instead of transparent ;)

Never :D every pic is different, impossible to just mass watermark them :D

Record your text and style as an action and they play it back whenever you want to use it
