I create my own in GIMP. You can go as over the top or simple as you want. I just kept mine simple.

Yes, unfortunately their website is not very user friendly at all!

You can download the version you need here: GIMP - Windows installers

GIMP is a full blown editing and graphic design program much to the extent of Photoshop. I hope you are not expecting to just press one or two buttons and have a watermark? You will have to manually design whatever you want. Let me know if you have any questions.
