How do we add our watermark to saved images in the new Lightroom CC?

    Watermarking is now available in the latest release, Lightroom 3.3. You can update your application from the Creative Cloud Desktop app or click the banner update button within the application – see web image below. I have a short YouTube video showing this new feature within the Share >> Export dialog.

    How is this a photography software and can't even do watermarks. They need to put it back on the new LR CC.

    They can't put it "back" in the new Lightroom CC because it has never been in the new Lightroom CC. This program is new from the ground up. It isn't any rework of the "old" Lightroom. Everything in Lightroom CC must be consistent and available on the computer, on the phone, on the tablet, on ALL devices. I have no connection with Adobe whatsoever. But perhaps providing this consistency is the reason some of these features aren't available yet. If you are a professional needing protection for your images, maybe Lightroom CC isn't ready for your use yet. You can control whether or not your images can be downloaded. But that doesn't prevent others from making screenshots, does it?

    Seriously? You left watermarking out of Lightroom CC and we are supposed to ask for it as a feature request?

    Not exactly. They know it's a feature lots of people want, but there's lots of features people want and they can't all be done at once, so votes help them prioritize the most popular features.

    So all the time I spent working and editing and downloading is wasted, because they can do one thing!

    What lazy developers!

    Actually, that sounds like a catch 22, because Classic will no longer allow me to import new photos.

    Add a post in the Classic forum about that Sarah, including a note of the error you get when trying to import photos into Classic.

    The number of votes is pretty high and it’s been requested on Lightroom Mobile for ages, so hopefully it will be come to the Cloud ecosystem sooner rather than later.

    Is there a way to download THAT version of Lightroom from Adobe? I need it ASAP and this new system is inhibiting my ability to do my job. Would be great to use the older one until Lightroom CC has more features.

    Yes. If you have the photography bundle, it'll be in your CC app. If you have the LRCC+1TB bundle, you'd need to get customer services to switch your plan to the Lightroom Classic + Photoshop + 20GB bundle instead.

    So basically I wasted time and energy working on the new lightroom CC editing images for nothing when I just got Lightroom CC. This is why Adobe sucks. Cant get this project done ive been working on for 5 months.

    Watermarks aren't available in version 1.0 of Lightroom CC. You might like to vote on this feature request: Watermarks in LR CC

    In the meantime, if watermarks are essential to your workflow, Lightroom Classic might be a better choice for you.
