I don't put watermarks on my stuff simply because DaVinici never wrote "(c) DaVinici, plz dont steal kthnxbye!" over the Mona Lisa. Plus, it's only effective if you put it over the middle of the image, or else it can just be cropped off. And even then, it'll only stop the morons who don't know how to use the clonestamp tool in photoshop. I can get rid of any watermark in about an hour without cropping it.
I remember there was a program that puts digital watermarks on photos/art. It's completely invisible, but if you drop a $1000 subscription fee per year, it'll automatically track down any website where it's posted without your permission. That's way too rich for my blood, even to prevent art thievery.
the only photos of mine that have been stolen [to the best of my knowledge] is every single photo I post on /p/. I decided to put a watermark on something I posted on /p/ once [since, hey, this is 4chan, who gives a shit about quality?], and the thread got trolled and deleted within a hour. So I quit posting my stuff here. Now I just comment/critique.
