It's what I have used since we discovered someone stole a photo of our baby to pass off as her own baby on a MySpace page. To lisa h...watermarking does nothing to prevent someone from copying or saving your photo to their computer. It makes it harder to steal or claim that you took the picture, and it gives an address or name of the source. Watermarks are very difficult to remove without damaging the integrity of the photo.

Or is it just so people can't copy it off your site and put it on theirs saying hey, I love this photo?

That would have never crossed my mind for someone to do that. But then, I'm not as warped as the person doing it. Thanks for sharing that. Watermark looks great!

Could you explain how to find out whether our pictures have been stolen? I use Flickr and cannot seem to figure out whether photos have been used without my permission. Your watermark looks great.

Something else you might consider is to disable right clicking to prevent people from copying your pictures. It's explained rather well at http://pubs.logicalexpressions.com/pub0009/LPMArticle.asp?ID=41 People who would steal pics of children have to be just sick! Love your blog!

I wish the text wasn't so long because it kind of detracts from the picture, but I guess that's kind of the point. :) It looks fine.

I mean I'm playing with one of a friend that her face could totally be the only thing they want and I don't really want a watermark right across there... so sad!
