3.0 Batch Image Watermark Plugin [No resizing] - bluedrop2007 - 09-10-2026
After being asked to put my name all over some pictures, I definitely knew I *was gonna use a GIMP automation*, therefore I spent all afternoon searching for a batch watermark plugin working for my version of GIMP, long story short, I found this plugin in another forum and I ran with it. To install it just make sure you know where your current GIMP Version Config is stored in (by that I mean I.e C:\Users\foobar\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\3.2,where you can find a folder named plug-ins or a file named pluginrc), now you should have a structure like this:
...\GIMP\3.2
> plug-ins
>Watermark3_from_Image_OWN
>Watermark3_from_Image_OWN.py
>
And after restarting GIMP you get a new option under the "Edit" menu.
PRO TIP: You can drag and drop the watermark file from your file manager(in windows AFAIK) to the watermark file input.
The main changes are that the original version lacked center alignment, and it wasn't adapted for batch watermarks. This version lacks resizing tho! So make sure your watermark image is the right size, or make your own patch, this has a lot of potential, plus it "just works" on GIMP 3.0.
It supports a lot of image containers however I only tested PNG,JPEG and JPG and honestly it doesn't feel slow but It could be faster *sigh*.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:After force stopping the plugin and closing GIMP, a bug tracker notice might pop up
P.S: Thanks for all the people active in these GIMP forums, you all genuinely keeping it alive and it's honestly interesting to read most threads. Specially oFnuts and all the people who submit bug reports or propose features or ask questions (like how to have python plugins located in submenus and or different menus)

....big snip...
Much as I like Tin's plugins, some great ones for Gimp 2.10 this one fails in my linux Gimp 3.2 - not enough parameters error.
For Gimp 3 batch editing try the Batcher plugin https://kamilburda.github.io/batcher/ Looks like this:

(1) Add the inputs and outputs. Select the Watermark function from Add Action.
(2) That gives options for the watermark. Most things there except scaling
You can save your setup for future use.
