Testing

Now it’s time to see if it all works. Open one of your photos (or use the one you already have open, but back at its original size) and click on the name of the action, then press Play:

Depending what settings you chose, it might stop here and there to wait for your involvement. For example, if you left cropping turned on, it will pause for you to resize the crop marquee then press Enter or Return to keep going. And if you decided you want full sharpening control, it will stop to let you tweak the USM settings, then when you press OK it will keep going.

If it all works perfectly, within a few seconds you should have the finished web photo right there on your screen, at the correct size, with the watermark in the correct position. If that happens, give yourself a high five!

If it doesn’t work, comment below so we can troubleshoot together.

Working properly? Let's save it >>

Is there a trick to slightly insetting the watermark from that bottom right corner?  

In the example picture above, there is a bit of space below and to the right of the watermark.  My text sits right on the bottom.

My watermark .psd file does have extra transparent pictures underneath it.

I explained this very carefully in the instructions, mate.  Read 'em again.

[sgfranklin]

Read through again, but don't see how I'd get a padding around my watermark. 

I want it in the bottom right, just not sitting right on the edge

clarity?

I've deleted the action and started again 3 times and I keep getting the same thing. An extra blank space at on the right of my image

When you go back step by step through your History panel, can you let me know which step the white space appears at?

[Barbara]

I closed photoshop yesterday and just opened it up again to get a screenshot of the history panel and today it worked better. it's still adding a tiny amount of blank space at the bottom, but very minimal. I'm attaching a screenshot of a super close up of the images you can see the extra space as well as a screenshot of th e step in which the extra space happens (the highlighted step).

Gosh, the "Convert to Smart Object" step causes a white line?  I've literally never heard of that before.
