It is possible to enlarge image's and remove watermark's easily in most instances.
I have played around with a picture of a seagull ( who would have guessed?)
I inserted the name AZBO across the feather's/wing's area.
I attempted to remove the watermark using clone.
But although i could remove the mark i had to do it a small piece at a time and then the result was actually rubbish because it was difficult to find an area to replace the watermark with.
It was not like cutting out a bit of sky and simply replacing it.
Use a watermark and place it on an area where you know that it will be difficult to clone-even on hair would work.
You don't want to spoil your image so fade the watermark until it is just visible under the naked eye using a blending colour.
The more detail beneath the watermark the better.

Thread: Photo community = dead on rendo... discuss | Forum: Photography
Hi and thank's
Thank you for your information which i greatly appreciate.
As you have said RR was more than willing to let you run with idea's.(Staff)
But if you do as i did and scroll through the archives (where i got my info)
Anything that i have written about can be clearly found.
The only thing about the info found on RR is that it is scattered.
Even a couple of step's above this post dear Mrs Lubner who was also on staff confirm's the thought's of many-not i alone.
There are a few archived post's where (staff) member's have been giving a free run to introduce new and often better idea's within the forum.
But there is not one single item whereby the request ( numerous requests ) for a seperate Photography chart's for example has been accepted.
I know first hand how time consuming running a website can be and how grateful people should be to those behind the scene's.
But what i have written is not fiction and it is not my thought's but the compilation of what other's know is being said.
Simple fact
The forum is failing? Why?
Easy answer really-Because it does not supply anything that makes people want to return.
Example-I this morning posted a link based on Photography tip's for beginner's.
43 visit's so far.
Not great i know but consider that 43 is not far behind most other normal post's.
As i tried to say in my previous post-The user's are who make the forum-Not the website owner's or staff.
I jump about all over the place reading post's and looking at image's-I post in the forum to bring another box up that someone may be interested in.
I see someone with a problem i try to help if i can.
If i asked if i could help?
Not here long enough,no experience, in all probability.
Somebody want's to use some of my free time-I am all ready and willing....
Before i forget i ran my own website for 16 year's-I was a domestic appliance engineer who contracted to Vax,Hitachi and Goblin where i stocked over 30,000 part's online.
PS.
It is not i who said the forum is failing - I simply wrote a possible reason, which more than i have said the very same.
Thank you

Thread: Why I protect my images | Forum: Photography
What a great image that is-No wonder it is being stolen?
Fun aside It does appear to be a "BIG" problem.
I don't suppose it bother's us unless it happen's to us personally.
I think that people should wake up before it does happen to them and try to do something to protect their property.
The only real answer is to post small image's-watermarked.
Not by a programme but layered and then saved as a jpeg.
Even place a watermark over an area that would be very difficult to clone.
No magic answer's i'm afraid.
Thank you

Thread: Why I protect my images | Forum: Photography
I was just sitting here reading this "AGAIN" and i thought that i would give it a try.
I opened Tineye in a seperate browser window and dragged an image which has just been posted here on RR into it.
I recognised one of the character's within the image from a long time ago.
Needless to say Tineye did indeed pick up on the character-Exact same image adjusted by pasting another on top to create two character's.
So it would appear that even here on RR copyright materials are being used.

Thank you.
I remember the first photo clearly from the new's and i have seen a couple of other's before-But most are sad in one respect or another whereby sorrow in life appears to be a winner.

Thread: Photo community = dead on rendo... discuss | Forum: Photography
Thank you so much MrsLubner.
The informality of the forum is excellent to say the least but simply to place a couple of extra pages into the site script take's nothing more than a couple of minute's.
Renderosity i would guess is almost unique in not having to decide what heading to put a thread under.
If i required help in adjusting my white balance for example i would have to browse all the post's to see if any information was available.
If i were to look under a heading for example named Camera setting's then in all probability i should find it there quicker since this is where the information should be found.
Wall's cannot be built without foundation's being laid.
Many people are avoiding saying what they feel for reasons unknown to myself.
Possibly feeling the wrath of Renderosity and all it's might is keeping them quiet.
It would be interesting to know how many people involved in photography have actually put forward ideas to Renderosity whereby their idea has been nurtured and turned into reality.
It is actually only small silly thing's that are driving people away-And one of those small silly thing's is the fact that Renderosity is not listening to the user's wishes.
Renderosity make's very little revenue from photography at this time and i truly hope that eventually they can.
So to offer a seperate - for example - photography art chart would cost them nothing extra but would keep many many people happy and contented.
Ilona-Krijgsman i noted is being as truthful as other's are.
Although some of our opinions differ greatly i accept her opinions as her own and valid,Yet she is clearly stating reasons why she does not post, as again other's are also doing.
But apart from being part of a discussion nothing will be done about her reasons for leaving.(She has great image's by the way)
In all probabilty her departure is regarded as no loss since she did not generate revenue.
Renderosity does not make the forum's.
The user's do, which is why the forum is struggling.
Renderosity is trying to run it without the user's and the user's have given the forum the thumb's down and let them get on with it.
There is no magic answer's but there are simple answer's.
The first being Renderosity should listen.
Hopefully the forum will survive but at this time i really do not see light at the end of the tunnel.

Thread: Photo community = dead on rendo... discuss | Forum: Photography
I have read every post in relation to this subject that i can and my honest opinion -Like it or Lump it-differs from many if not most.
People express how they are disappointed with A B C D E.
They also state that they cannot find true reason why the forum is failing?
I noted that none expressed what they believe the forum should actually be or represent?
At the moment there is a place we call a forum where mixed item's are placed randomly.
No set criteria and where a few decent moderator's struggle daily with idea's in an attempt to keep the forum alive.
People should first decide what the Photography forum should be.
Sound's simple enough. Yet not...
I believe that the forum should be divided into section's.
For example:
(HELP)---HAVE A PROBLEM WITH LIGHTING,ISO OR CAMERA SETTING THEN ASK HERE.
(INFORMATION/TIP'S)---CAPTURING NIGHT IMAGE'S,BIRD'S IN FLIGHT,SETTING WHITE BALANCE ETC.
(LENSES/CAMERAS)---ITEM'S RELATED TO TYPES OF LENS/CAMERAS.
(CHAT)---TALK ABOUT ANYTHING RELATED TO PHOTOGRAPHY OR JUST SIMPLY WANT TO TALK.
(USEFUL LINK'S)---LINKS TO USEFUL PAGES IN RELATION TO PHOTOGRAPHY.
(FUN)---POST YOUR FUN IMAGES HERE.
(PASS THE TIME)---SMALL CONTESTS RUN FOR FUN BY THE COMMUNITY.
(NEW'S)---PHOTOGRAPHY NEW'S FROM AROUND THE WORLD.
(BEGINNER'S TIP'S AND INFO)---ANYTHING TO HELP A BEGINNER
The forum will never hold the attention of everyone.
Consider that a post has just been made which receives no view's?
Surely this would simply imply that no-one was interested.
Yet another different post could receive quite the opposite interest.
There has to be a selection of topics available to suit all user's in one respect or another or people will simply not find what they are looking for and move on.
The user's build the forum and the user's use it.In other word's they make it into what they want it to be.
Some emphasis has been placed on the posting,commenting and quality of image's.
So for now i will use myself as an example.
I pay a subscription hence i will post up to my daily quota as i see fit.
I appreciate that this can be a pain in the backside for other's who have friended me etc.
Mail notifications from not only myself but also their other 50 friend's in relation to new post's."ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
Obligation is the word that i would use to describe how they probably feel they must act toward's commenting on the new post's.
Personally i would rather someone not comment rather than tell a lie to prevent upsetting me.
I won't comment on an image out of obligation.
I comment because i want to-Perhaps in simple term's or even now and then in elaborate term's.
I do not understand photography too well to comment on intricate detail's so more often than not i comment-LOVE IT.
The truth being that i do love it.
Copy and paste is a thing that occurs everywhere on different sites the world over.
Language barrier's is one reason given but at the end of the day someone has taken the time to copy and paste a reply and pay attention to your post.AT LEAST THEY DID NOT IGNORE IT...
I don't really choose to compare Renderosity to other site's as there really is no comparison.
We as individual's have the right of free choice and speaking for myself i choose freely to be here.
Many people know of the cLIQUE'S here but for some reason avoid the subject.
The clique's were not built to be such but were simply a build of friend's etc over a period of time.
But this annoy's so many people.
What the clique's actually cause unintentionally is for certain individuals to alway's appear the master of their craft although they could in fact have presented crap image's/render's.
This deludes the individual's who can clearly see the truth and rightly becomes upset.
I do not believe that we should check photo quality to see if it is good enough to be posted here?
This is supposed to be a friendly community where we help each other not belittle individuals because we feel they are not presenting work good enough for our own standard's.
My photo's are not the best,i know.
So do i elect not to publish them because i believe they are not the best?
Do i stand in judgement of other's better than myself and send their images to hell because i do not believe they are quality images?
Renderosity has alway's been render based and photography is alway's just an extra page.
People "HAVE" left because of the attitude toward's fairness for the photography section.
Many idea's have been put forward over the year's in respect of photography, for instance give photography it's own chart's.
But i doubt anyone will find any photography chart's?
The mod's in general are great but this site is money orientated like many other's.
Whereby the power's that be want thing's introduced that will make more money not cost more bandwidth.
Photograph's should not have to compete with render's even here yet they do.
This make's people angry and scornful and eventually some leave.
How many photographer's over the year's have topped the ART CHART'S ?
It is time to stop skipping around the bushes and face the problems head on.
Renderosity should listen to the individuals from the photography world and take action rather than sit back saying well we have idea's of our own.
The users will revive the forum if they have the true backing of RR
If not then what is the point of pretending to still have one.
