During the uploader process, a burned watermark is permanently embedded in the low-resolution images displayed in the gallery. In addition to displaying the watermark in the gallery, share tab, and on Web-Size downloads, it is also displayed in the store preview. This will guarantee that there are no unwatermarked images displayed to the clients at any point in their site experience.

Galleries uploaded while the settings are set to Burn into Low-Res watermark will be the only ones affected. If you decide to no longer display a burned watermark on a previously uploaded gallery, you will need to change the watermark settings and re-upload the images into the gallery.

If your settings are set to Burn into Low-Res, the galleries that have images that were uploaded prior to having this setting will not display a watermark. For example, if a gallery had a regular watermark and then you enabled the burned watermark, all previous galleries with the regular watermark will lose the watermark. To keep the watermark, the old images would need to be re-uploaded into the gallery.

If you have a Business subscription, the uploader will burn the watermark based on which brand you have selected in the gallery's Name & Cover tab during time of upload.

When you select to burn the watermark into the low-res images, you will no longer be able to manage the settings per each gallery. The settings would include disabling/enabling the watermark per gallery, user type or scene. The watermark is permanently displayed for all user types, in all scenes and all galleries (that are uploaded after you choose to burn the watermark setting).

In the Name & Cover tab of a newly created gallery, select the watermark. The watermark will be burned into the images during upload and cannot be edited.
