Quote - I agree images with the big text layer copyright across the image defeat the purpose of displaying the image. But, isn't there the embedded watermark Photoshop filter that only shows when the document is printed?

There may be such  a thing, but I don't see how it would survive loading the image in Photoshop, ctrl-a, ctrl-c, file>new, ctrl-v...

And that doesn't address web-only use of images.

What's needed is 1. a way for watermarks to appear only when an image is displayed on a different server from the one specified by the original creator (and not just for hotlinked images), and 2. a way to show the watermark pasted over the image in browser screenshots, or 3. a way to punch people in the face right through their monitors when they take your stuff and claim it as their own.
