...If we artists to not want to tell people clearly just because some of those messages would be forbidden to be shown if they were written in clear ?

You mean steganography, like terrorists allegedly use to pass messages to each other? Dios mio, it would be a nightmare having to check all 400,000 NVITWS for secret messages!

Funny, this discussion coming up... because there's a product to embed text in an image for sale right here at the marketplace I just noticed the other day. http://market.renderosity.com/softgood.ez?ViewSoftgood=32546 I assume its original purpose was to put a copyright message embedded in the image, but people will misuse all sorts of things.

o.O....that's just great. Well, if they don't get here, they'll get it somewhere else. I don't see too many people here using it for nefarious reasons. Still...... Ditto Jumpstartme2 however, Big Brother could be keeping tabs on all who purchase this type of item.

I tried another steganography program to encrypt my copyright on it. However after uploading the image to my gallery, RO changes the name in the files, so the encryption was lost. On another note about this, .BMP files are huge byte-wise and I would only use them sparingly (very sparingly)

".big brother is already looking hard enough at everyone.." Who has lived in dictatures know very well how to put messages that will pass the censure, after all censors are very stupid.

Stupidity also evolves!
