I hate it when people steal your images off your website..
« on: November 06, 2010, 11:16:51 PM »
I have had alot of lurkers on t m f steal images My sister took for my business. She is and has been a photographer for 20 plus years. So with that being said How can I watermark my images with gimp? duck country, one of your competitors stole a few of my images.. and one generic image I bought from photolia. but its family pics and one and only pics really tick me off. not to mention I typed in my picture names and found jerks as far as new zealand using my pics... I didnt renew my photoshop because it was a downloadable program. I knew I shoulda bought an actual CD

Did your sister copyright her photos?

Doesn't Adobe Photoshop allow you to watermark photos?

If not there are other programs out there.

You actually need to send them a cease and desist letter to them. A watermark is actually pretty easy to photo shop over if you really like a picture.

I no longer have the photoshop. I had paid for it when I got the new pc but when the hard drive crashed I lost the key code. to re download it. I back stuff up now like mad crazy.

I use GIMP these days. its free and just like adobe. but I cannot find anything on wtermarking.. and Yes she has all her work copyrighted. she is sending the info via snail mail.
