How to Remove Image Watermark Easily | No Software Needed | High Quality

Greetings! It's Lewis from Granada's Basketball here. Today, I’m excited to guide you on how to download any image from Getty Images and efficiently remove the watermark without any additional software. This process is quick and straightforward, taking mere minutes.

Steps to Follow

  1. Open Getty Images & Downloader Website

    • Navigate to Getty Images to find the image you want.
    • Open the downloader website: downloader.la.

  2. Select and Download an Image

    • For this tutorial, I’ll use a Derek White image.
    • Save the image URL by copying it.

  3. Download the Image without Watermark

    • Paste the copied URL into the downloader.la website.
    • The image will automatically download with the watermark removed, but note the quality might decrease.

  4. Save and Compare the Image Quality

    • Download the image from downloader.la.
    • Save the image without changing the name.

  5. Upload to Photoshop for Quality Comparison

    • Open Photoshop or any software capable of masking.
    • Drag the downloaded image and the original Getty Images file into Photoshop to compare the quality.

Quality Comparison

  • Observe the quality difference between Getty Images and the downloaded one. The latter may be less pixelated.

Removing the Watermark Using the Marquee Tool

  • Select the area with the watermark using the Marquee Tool.
  • Hold the ‘Alt’ key and click the Mask Button to remove the watermark.

Alternatively, Use the Brush Tool

  • Select the brush tool, change the color to black, and brush out the watermark.
  • Using the Marquee Tool is generally faster and easier.

Finalization

  • To remove any additional watermark, repeat the same process.
  • Convert the finalized image to a smart object.
  • Now, you have a high-quality image with the watermark removed.

Conclusion

This method is straightforward and efficient for graphic designers and anyone needing to use watermark-free images. I hope you found this tutorial helpful. For any queries, feel free to comment. Don't forget to like, subscribe, and I'll see you in the next tutorial. Peace!
