Thanks for watching.
Any comments are welcome!
tip: this only works when watermarks are slightly transparent
I think slightly transparent watermarks are common cause it’s more difficult to be removed by heal or content aware tools
So when they're not transparent this trick won't work. Congratulations. you figured out context.
@@Alacritous hey! just a heads up, in the future, instead of acting like a pretentious asshole, just dont leave a comment :) hope this helps!
@@Kevschwa I'm only an asshole to stupid people.
This goes without saying
I'm no graphic designer, but I believe you remove watermarks by buying the rights to use the property
my man you are hilarious or you just don't know that almost everything can be free on the internet
I'm literally laughing at hard rn fr
As a graphics designer i do not believe in buying rights but finding way around that because qe are wayy too poor to buy stuff we might not even use
@@randokaratajev2617 you gotta want it hard enough
@@randokaratajev2617 everything on the internet can be free... but it shouldn't, imagine you live from the internet
Shutter stocks wants to know your location
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Whats shutter stock
@@freakingerror1037 some stock photo service
@FreakingError mostly shutterstock having that kind of watermarks
🙏
except this only works if you have one of them on a perfect solid background like that 😭
The guy in this video also voted for Trumpy Bear and licked his poo off his orange thighs.
Perfect solid white background
tip: they can sue you if you use the picture for commercial purposes
how would they know i haven't paid for it?
@@toddhowardfr When you buy stock footage you get a license or certificate. I don't know the English term. There are some crazy cases where they sued for a lot of money.
@TechXplore thanks :)
@@softecat2123 no that’s how you get caught really easily, as the metadata is now linked with Facebook and you also lost half the quality of the photo due to compression, it is WAYYY easier to just open up gimp or photoshop and change it there
@@ContinuedOak Well that's gay.
And that's exactly why watermarks are algorithmically altered in a unique and invisible way. It looks normal and repetitive, but there are small and indistinguishable differences in the watermark shape all over the place. Basically none of the watermark image you see is an exact copy of some another within that image, even if it appears so. That makes it immune to this technique. However even if it doesn't completely get rid of it, you can still use some spot healing brushes to clear any remaining disrutancies. The thing is that that will actually alter the pixels so it's more noticeable.
Discrutancies.... do people bother trying anymore? Lmao
You can still do it individually for each spot like he did.
@@grekygrek he wrote that whole thing out and THAT'S what you got out of? What're you trying 😮💨
And don’t forget all the inconsistencies introduced by compression artifacts
You can still recreate it 100% exactly and copy paste it over itself. Works somehow good I think

alt alt title: how to commit a crime in photoshop
@OwO ok
@@rawruwucutiepie do you... Know what a crime is. Crimes are offences against the government, things that get you sent to jail. A civil offence, on the other hand, is between two entities, in this case you and the stock image company. You can get sued for using the images commercially, but definitely not arrested. And just having a pirated copy probably wouldn't even constitute a lawsuit.
@@rawruwucutiepie its perfectly fine as long as you are not using it for commercial purposes
Piracy is based
another way : levels > move the sliders to black > select color rang (select black) > select similar > fill content aware fill
i think the whole point was to avoid content aware fill and get the real image pixels lol
Artists who don’t want their art to be stolen want to know your location.
Maybe stop plastering your ugly watermarks all over your art and people will stop removing them. ROFL
It’s a photo
I'm not stealing. I'm copying. I'd download a car.
I as an artist would like to know his location and personally want to have a "talk" with him.
@@InterTheGalactican Cringe
I mean, this is great if you have an only transparent gray watermark, and a portion of picture containing the entire thing, that's also on a perfectly white background. Good luck ever getting this to work for real.
Tip: This blending option works when the background is white only.
Helpful hints to steal copyrighted works.
🏴☠️
It’s kinda useful for cool wallpapers you want to get but can bc of the watermark and they look uncool bc of it
To be fair, there are plenty of sites that take public domain images and add watermarks to sell them.
@@TheApocalypseAttack THAT'S WHAT THE COMMENT TALKING ABOUT DUMBASS
You mean like AI?
Sadly, it only works on semitransparent watermarks with a watermark over an area with a constant value, but still a really useful tip. I guess it can be adapted by using edge detection and making a mask out of that selection if there is no area with a constant value.
Now I know what colour dodge is for. Finally...
color dodge is for dodging colors
Me: “is that… legal?” Him: “I will make it legal”
Copyrighter: oh, so cute, my dear "Puts one huge watermark on the whole picture"
😂
it only works on white or solid color background.
This one is white Background color. Check other video for black color
Only works when watermark is 50% grey
Yes
99% of watermarks are like that
Fantastic job 🎉
Can you make a tutorial for non transparent watermarks?
Check last short video
@@SmartGraphic thanks
Never thought of doing it like that. Thank you so much. I’m learning so much from your videos.
You are so welcome!
this is why i watermark images with a gradient colour, at an angle, and only once
Thanks now I know how to circumvent it
@@ContinuedOak i'd like to see you try! the gradient especially makes it very difficult to get an exact match on the colours, even if you have the shape perfect.
As someone who is trying too figure out how too circumvent techniques like this video, you mean you gradient the watermark itself? And it works well?
@@ContinuedOak good luck with that thief there are generally other repercussions to keep Jack holes like yourself from stealing things!! Consent is important!
@@splash6267 yeah, generally just put a light gradient sheen over the image using the watermark as a mask. of course the gradient should be at another random angle too. then just turn down the opacity and choose a layer blend mode that looks good visually the theory is that unless they can match the gradient perfectly, they're always going to have leftover colour from the watermark unless there's a technique I haven't heard of
Now show it on complex background
This is beautiful. 10/10
😍😍😍
can't wait to see videos with transparent, shaking, and moving watermarks
Da fuq are you pirating?! Stay off da dark web, bra.
@@hardtymz2517 ???
it’s all fun and games untill flower pulls up at your house with a swat team
The guy who taught some people to be a pirate
thxs alot for your tutorials ,it has really made me to love graphics
I always thought the best way to remove is to actually owning the rights to what you use.
There are People Who actually buy photos online?
Watermarks are there to deter you from stealing the image (and to indicate where you can purchase the rights from). Removing the watermarks doesn't give you the right to use the image
Well done ❤
if you take a watermark Removing a watermark from an image without the copyright owner's permission is considered copyright infringement and can result in legal action.
Yes
The legal action costs more than whatever pay you will get from suing for that lol
Tip: pay your artists! Dont steal their work.
Did u know that if a company takes a photo of you and send it with a watermark (newspapers, news media or even ur mall Santa) will give you watermarked copies, it’s not always about paying someone
no
🤓
Yeah nah thats long bro
Thanks man! This helps me when all my images have watermarks! I needed this!
To the people saying it's illegal to use copyrighted images, yes obviously, but there are plenty of reasons to do this especially an amateur who isn't publishing their work anywhere. If you just wanna make something fun that doesn't have watermarks and don't have money just lying around it's helpful.
i dont even own photoshop and i still watched this through
💜
We love the internet due to its lawless nature
Until the court summons happens.
no one’s getting sued for putting a photo of Messi on their google slides without the watermarks bruh
best way to remove watermarks is to pay the Photographer.
The problem is, a lot of the pictures with watermarks are stolen. Shutterstock for instance is notorious for taking freely shared pics and slapping their own watermark on them and selling them to the public
@@sudanemamimikiki1527and so you're gonna commit the same crime! Makes sense, what a stupid argument
@@Nick-tl7ts so you are gonna support thievery and plagiarism instead? Makes sense. What a logical argument.
@@sudanemamimikiki1527 Just because they do it it doesn't make it more correct, you're still stealing images
@@armouredgoblin4872 using free use pictures that someone stole and placed a watermark on ain't exactly a crime.
I think this process works not same equally on every watermarks. Thanks
WHY AM I WATCHING THIS ITS 1 AM AND I HAVE A TEST TOMORROW I DONT EVEN HAVE PHOTOSHOP
same
You know why people do watermarks, right?
because of ((((them))))
That only works if at least 1 watermark is completely on white or transparent background. Besides: it's piracy
Background colour doesn't matter. What matters is the opacity of the watermark.
The last part is the best part.
I copied this image and tried your method, only the initial watermark was successful。why the other watermarks were not successfully removed
wait dude you sound like Ronaldo....is it only me??
😀 your 3rd
Bro that’s illegal 💀
Yes
Bro gave my comment a fucking heart 💀
No it’s not. Using the edited photo without permission is illegal
@@josiahbaumgartner7643 yeah but he used it in his video +I don’t think anyone is going to use it privately
@@orren6999she isn’t right. Especially in the head brainz.
This is Just lighten up the watermark, not working for light watermark or watermark in dark image
What if there's no clean pattern to start with? Say I have an image with fine details and big letters written all over in a diagonal. Would watermark removal work?... without leaving observable trace?
Another tip on how to remove watermarks: Don’t pirate
What can I do with this information .... hmmmm....
Good luck with this if you don’t have a watermark that happens to be on a plain background!
Bro just taught us how to steal
Pretty genius
do not remove watermark like this! i mean i won't if its dismantling my face in the process.
"Dismantling my face" why do you have watermarks on pictures of your own face in the first place?
I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE STEAL YOUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. THEN SHOW OTHER’S HOW TO STEAL FROM YOU INSTEAD OF BUYING THE IMAGE…
who tf wanna buy an image of messi
Removing these watermarks on photoshop works but it has to be transparent.
Alternatively, don't steal other people's pictures and buy the rights to other people's pictures
Yall there's more than one reason you might want to do this than pirating. Using it as a reference photo. Practicing other photoshop skills. Actually taking the watermark off like this isn't illegal. Proceeding to use it in a way that makes you money is. Using it in a way that gets you more exposure isn't illegal, but disingenuous. Make sure to credit the author.
This video would be awesome if it ended at “do not remove watermarks”
What a great lesson you just gave people on how to essentially steal other designers' work. Bravo 🚩
I don’t even own photoshop but now I now how to do everything
This only works when you have the actual image as a layer without any watermarks, then a separate layer where the watermarks are that you created just for this video.
They are not separated layers
this is nice ❤
Thank you
I personally prefer to keep the watermark for the comedy
Nice tutorial video!
Thanks!
Do not remove watermarks. There's a reason why they're on the page to prevent people from stealing that intellectual property
Yea but watermarks look bad
Fuck them
I don't care.
@@randomchad915 it’s not “chad-like” to steal intellectual property from small companies bro. but i’m guessing you don’t realize that. you’re probably too young to if you still think the chad meme is peak comedy to where you centred your whole youtube channel around it. oh, well. you’ll grow up someday.
@@gramfero They only put watermarks on there so you buy the photo removing them is literally theft
It doesn't work with opaque watermarks
Damn this is almost like magic lol

Now the timmies and Sally’s are gonna remove watermarks from art that was worked hard on and pretend they made it.
Just don’t make the watermarks transparent ffs
It just makes life harder
Photoshop on the interwebs is free and then using it to get rid of watermarks on paid images is also free. Tag team score! Whoops there it is! Tag team!
Here's an easier way: Actually pay for it
here's an easier way: shut the fuck up i wont pay 20 bucks for a fucking photo shitard
@@JoaoFelipe-gm3pq Then don't use the photo shitard
The best way to remove watermarks is to pay the photographer / artist in question. Removing a watermark via any other means is extremely unethical.
Thank you know I’m going to pay seven different platforms with my broken ass
Why pay when you can get it for free.
please make a video like that but using after effects
now teach me how to remove the lawsuit
Step 1 ask chat GPT to remove it.
Do not remove watermarks like that it’s illegal 😂
It’s not and has actually cases where it can be useful
Is the police gonna come to my house for removing a watermark? Lol, its fine to remove watermarks and use them as long as you arent making money from it
OMG thank you for this
The GOAT
Use Ai to remove the water marks
Or just pay for the items you want to use
or you can save money you know?
@@AquosFrost save money so pirating/steeling other peoples property possibility of getting caught especially when making videos about it only to pay the astronomically high fines to see you would have been better off just paying
@@triumvir_hunt I mean if your just using it for something small, like to present somewhere or share online it’s fine. I think you should only pay if you want to use it commercially for a business
@@AquosFrost stupid logic, use a free stock image then. If there's a very specific image you want, then you should pay for it.
Cry about it
Impressive! 👌
Thanks! 😁
Stock photos have a new apex predator on their hands.
What you should do: Pay for the picture so you do not steal it from the artist!
I think this is aimed at stock images from companies
Do not remove watermaks like this Pay for what you're gonna use and it'll remove itself like Magic
Didn't work for me. However if you do the same method with just divide transparency mod, it kinda works.
It works with low opacity watermarks
Messi became Elf
Don't remove watermarks at all
As vezes é permitido fazer isso, pois existem sites que pegam imagens grátis e adicionam marcas d'água
@@cosmicblader4002 isso é um bom ponto | That's a good point!
How to remove watermarks: dont break the law and pay for the use of the picture.
Many companies steal art and place their watermark over it. Id much rather do this than give those shitty companies money.
Brilliant!!!
💜
naahhh. thats stupidity
Next time show us how to rob a photographer irl
Don't remove watermarks at all because they are there for a reason and if you do this and use the photo you're committing a crime :)
I don't care
Oh no, the poor poor CEO's of shutterstock and gettyimages, who are notorious for taking free public images and slapping their watermark on it will be starving
Wow oh boy now I can steal all my favorite artists artwork and call it my own instead of drawing something original and well made.
Looks like my next picture is gonna have black lines all over it
Don't remove watermarks at all.
