I've seen it done in several photos. I have a "logo" jpeg I would like to use as a watermark. I certainly could just add the text for the website but I wanted to give this a try.
Any one know where I can learn to do this?
Thanks

Stan.
It should be pretty simple. Open the logo image and the image on which you want to place the logo. Select the logo and copy it. Move to the new image and paste. You can then move the logo to the desired position and use the layers opacity slider to change the opacity if desired.

Is your logo in color or just B/W? If it is B/W, you can make it into a brush and then you can apply it with any brush tool in PS. Just open the logo jpeg, select it with a selection tool, like a rectangle, go to "edit" then to "define brush preset" click, name the brush and thats it. This new brush will show up at the bottom of your brush palette and then you can use it, make it bigger, smaller, change the color, etc just like any brush. So, you always have this brush at your command with any image that you are working on without having to open another file and copy/paste it in. Sometimes I will use this brush with the clone tool if I want to dupe a color pattern in my image. As Roger says, using this on it's own layer will allow you to control opacity. You can also add drop shadows and other effects to the logo.
If it is B/W make it into a brush. With color using File/Place where the Place command lets you open the logo file on top of the base image and subsequently resize and position it . Using Place can also be used as part of an action, in which case you might also want the action to include a specific size or location on the base image for the logo. regars~Bill
