Any way to automatically watermark uploaded photos?

I just started using the cloud storage adobe provides with the CC plan. Is there any way to automatically add a watermark to a photo when i add it to a collection that I've got automatically syncing to adobe ? I'd rather not have to export all these images just to add watermarks to them.

Thanks

    I support this! We need that for the adobe portfolio included in Lightroom plan

    Watermarks are only applied when exporting Images, which makes sense because you don’t want watermarks on your originals. I can see where it might be nice to have a watermark display over an image in a collection that is displayed publicly. That would require using code because the watermark would only display on the image, but wouldn’t actually be part of the image. This would be a good feature upgrade.

    I have to admit I'm really surprised this isn't a feature available in the adobe portfolio. It seems like watermarking photos being used to showcase someone's work would be a fairly common, and desirable, practice.

    Are you asking about Adobe Portfolio, or about Lightroom?

    As far as I know it isn't possible. You can add a watermark only on export the appropriate pictures.
