I watermark only to the extent that i want people to be able to find me and hire me or buy my prints. I always put my url on an image, but I make it unobtrusive and non destructive. As Mark said, if people aren't swiping your stuff, your photos probably aren't good enough. but restrict the size and that restricts the useage mostly to "PR FOR KYLE". 1200 pixels isn't quite enough to make a 4x6 though it's nice enough to give someone a bit of joy as their computer desktop and, hopefully, push them over to my website. kc On Oct 19, 2010, at 2:48 AM, Mark Rabiner wrote: > I think on the issue of theft: > We wish. > > In one sense if they're not ripping us off we're not doing it right. > And usually the more I see somebody making their pix small and with > graphics > in the middle of them the less it looks to me that anyone would want to > steal this guys photos in the first place anyway.
