I need help on this one please..................

Answer 1

Antoni is right, digimark will do watermarks for you. also go to file/info and put a copyright in the info embedded in the photo. Very simple to do, I do it to all mine. You can also fill in other info there, your name, a title, a description, To do a copyright, put "©copyright 2007 Linda Jones" You can find the copyright sign in Charmap or if you have a PC, just hold down the alt key and type ON THE NUMBER PAD, 0169. Then release the alt key. Be sure Num Lock is on before you try this, it will not work on the numbers across the top. You don't actually have to use the © sign, I just think it looks neat. ;-)

A watermark does NOT stop people from saving your pictures.... they can EASILY just use photoshop to get rid of the watermarks. You'd be surprised how many people are good at erasing watermarks...



People steal pictures all the time. And posting them on the internet is a bad idea... Once they're posted, it's just takes a right click and save to get the pics in their hands.



So a watermark does NOT stop them. There is no protection. The only protection is to not post them on the internet AT ALL.

If you are placing you photos on the web or on cd for clients to view, I would definitely use a watermark. You can create a simple watermark by following these steps:
