Watermark Plus add-on – workflow sample
Why the Watermark Plus add-on is useful for a designer:
I use it like this: until the customer pays for the project in full, he has all the renders in final quality, in the final size, but with watermarks. The customer has access to the “Conform” folder. And after paying for the project, I just give access to download from the “Final” folder.
Very simple, very effective.

How to install required packages to the Blender Python with pip
For add-ons development, sometimes it is necessary to use packages that are not included in the core set of the Blender Python interpreter.
