[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 295925, member: 9521"] To answer your question why we put a watermark (in my case a web address) is for advertisement sake. Many good people in the world will share your low resolution image and will keep your watermark with it. If, by chance, someone sees the image and wants to purchase a print or the high res digital file, they'll know who you are and how to contact you. As for keeping your images safe, post only low resolution images. There's nothing much an image pirate can do with low res images other than posting them on the internet. And that, in and of itself, is about as secure as your photos can ever be in the digital age. [/QUOTE]
