[QUOTE="Photowyzard, post: 86642, member: 8344"] Some very nice shots, Tami Jo. I was going to comment on your copyright line. I am glad you made it smaller and less obtrusive. These copyright watermarks typically detract from the image. I typically have mine off the photo. If you want to actually have it on the photo, I would suggest you make it small and put it on the bottom right corner. The typical convention for copyright I have seen used often in print is: Copyright © 2012, Your Name Here You don't have to have this large and all over your print. Less is more! You are much better protected by simply posting a 4x6" image at 72 dpi. It looks great on screen and you can't do much with it other than maybe post it on another web site. You certainly can't print anything at 72dpi much less make money on it. The chances someone will steal an image that size are not that great. Post your pictures to make yourself happy, I wouldn't worry too much about the rest. Check out one of my images, I don't even put it on the picture itself.
