How to create a watermark

Upload a PNG or SVG logo as a MyRun watermark and open it in the editor. Applied on the fly, never baked into your originals.

A watermark protects your photos in the public gallery. It's applied on the fly to the displayed sizes: your original files stay untouched, and buyers receive the clean version.

Steps

  1. Open your event and click Watermark.
  2. Click New watermark.
  3. Upload your image: PNG or SVG, max 1 MB. SVGs are converted to a high-resolution PNG automatically.
  4. Continue to the editor to position it (see the next guides).

Good to know

  • Banner-shaped (very wide) images are positioned along the bottom automatically; other shapes start in a corner. Everything is adjustable in the editor.
  • Recognition always runs on unwatermarked versions internally, so the watermark never hurts bib or face detection.
  • After a participant buys a photo, they download the unwatermarked, full-quality file.
