How many of you do your own wallpapering and then call yourselves Painters & Decorators?
Erm ... I do.
What is this ruling that one must be professional to watermark?
I don't want my photos nicked - hence the watermark. Do you not secure your car because you're not a professional racing driver?
xSitara;1419844 said:Same here BUT if you have a watermark right at the corner or bottom of an image people can easily crop them and cut out the watermark, you should center your watermarks and make them fainter slightly That way no one can crop it
Well I try to put them in a position where if they're cut out or cropped it will ruin the image.

xSitara;1419886 said:Why are you guys debating over who's a photographer who isn't? The main point here is that everyone has a right to watermark their work because it's their work and they own it, it prevents theft.
To the OP watermarking your work is a fab idea, it doesn't matter which level your at, what kinda work it is. Go for it
So how is printing money that is "data in a pc" any different from printing your photograph? They are still the same basic crime. If software is just "data in a pc" then how come you buy it in a store, and obtaining it without paying is classed as theft?
I'm actually trying to determine whether you really believe this or are just pulling our legs. :shrug:
waternarks!

All we need now is for someone to chip in with some HDR bashing and a bit of 'what am the best camera system' and we'll get into a cyclone of the perfect circular argument
Use a crude drawing of a big cock as a watermark. It will give across a succinct message to those you wish to deter.
It's like claiming rock music is better than jazz or something
And YOU paid £2 to see the copy of your own photo?
You should do what I do - just take really crap photos - problem solved

I didn't say there was anything wrong with adding watermarks to your photographs, I just think it's wrong when you see crap images with professional looking watermarks on them saying XYZ Photography which suggests to me as if it's done by a pro.
The OP says his pictures are amatuerish at best so theres a very good chance we'll end up seeing an example just as I've described because he's been convinced by the hordes on here that it's the right thing to do.
Good, you agree with me.I think the government should make it illegal to put a professional looking watermark on an amateur image.
Don't post images bigger than 800px and don't worry about it too much!
