Quote - Where there's a will, there's a way - even if you put watermarks on there, sometimes they'll remove it in Photoshop (unless you do the nightmare ALL ACROSS THE IMAGE watermark - in which case it makes it almost unviewable). Even if it's a crappy job, they'll pass it off as their own.
Yep, early on, I used to hide my initials in the image itself by shrinking them way down tiny small, and embedding them somewhere in the image itself, so that if you took the image and blew it up a couple of times, the intials would be visible, just in case someone ripped the image and removed my sig from it. I've seen some of my early stuff that was ripped on the net, and someone actually went in, and photoshopped my initials out.
Now, I just don't post anything, if I don't want it all over the place on the net.
