In this tutorial, I will show you what I think is the best technique to turn a signature into a watermark in Photoshop.

We will use a technique that will allow you to save Opacity, Blending Modes, and Layer Styles.

Best of all, you can use the watermark on other Adobe applications and apply it to videos and illustrations using linked Smart Objects.

This video will be more than your typical Brush signature tutorial.

Remember that this technique could be used with a logo or other graphics, but I will use a signature to demonstrate how it all works.
