Any ideas?

Check out this website... if it isn't to your liking, just do a google of photoshop + watermark, and you should find something.

If you have Elements and/or CS2 - it can be done via Adobe Bridge

if you want to add a visible water mark you can add a new layer 'Layer>New Layer'. Use the type tool to add the text of your watermark. Next you can change the opacity if the text layer by sliding the opacity value down in the layers window. 'Window>Layers'. Alternatively change the text layer from 'Normal' to 'Overlay' and play with the opacity.

I used to use photomark: http://www.photomark.biz/

Now I use watermark factory: http://www.watermarkfactory.com/

Both have unregistered programs you can use but I ended up liking watermark factory best so I bought it, it was cheap too

I thought it was a photoshop's technique, like a filter or something, I had no idea it requires a different program.
Thank you all for your replies, I'll check them out, as also yours SyCo.

What an excessively salty post.

Sang dont bother with these two, you already have p$ so you don't need to spend more. The visual water mark is pretty easy to add and you can automate the process to batch process a whole folder. Read up on creating an action and automating a process.

You can add invisible watermarks digitally but it costs
http://www.digimarc.com/ can't say good or bad about them as I've not used their service/
