Good for you Anita! I noticed your new watermark and thought it great. We have to do this now, unfortunately. Not that my photos have been 'stolen' much (that I know of!) but I have watermarked for a long time now. And yes, it can be edited out but, at least we try. I hope it works better for you.

I don't say much when I visit, but I've enjoyed your blog for a couple of years now. The photos of your home truly inspire unique, beautiful taste but also innovation with how you transform old things in a modern way. Love!! Good for you in being determined to own your photos and work!!! I am always here if you need an extra positive response! :)

I love visiting your blog and I was truly inspired by your tablescapes with a decorating dilemma I'm having.

Hello Anita, There is a very easy and free program called "Picmonkey" that lets you add text (watermarking) in different ways and into many different spaces of your photo "Watermarking" dated August 27,2012 which gives additional links on how you can report :"scrapers"( those who steal entire blogs and make money from them). Good Luck, Gina

Hi Anita! I'm so sorry to hear your beautiful photography has been stolen! I have heard of this happening before. I'm all for the watermarks, I use them, but Iike yours better. About the negative comments, that's what my previous post was all about, mine hiding behind Anonymous. Hateful, hurtful. Like you, I would never post anything hurtful but this person made something of my post that was just not right. We just have to pray for these pitiful people. You're very talented, Anita, and it's a shame others would steal your beautiful work. Thanks for this post.

What's up with the negative Nancy's coming out of the woodwork? It's your blog. Your photos. Simple as that. If they don't like he aesthetics of a watermark, then they could POLITELY discuss the pros and cons with you, but ultimately realize it is your decision.

It's too bad that a few spoil it for the many. I have watermarked off and on, mostly off because I don't like seeing my photos with my name on them, but I do understand why they must be used. I have found in the past that the people who have complained to me are not even bloggers. They just read and take from us without any idea how much time, effort, and money it takes to create a blog that others would want to visit. I don't get many comments and rarely a nasty one, and it's probably because I don't have that much traffic on my blog. Maybe that is a blessing after all.

Keep up the good work, you have a most lovely blog.

Anita, I need to learn how to do this. Something else weird... I will have 59 views on a post from years ago. It happens all the time, but I can't tell where they are coming from. Makes you wonder.
ReplyDeleteBlogging has changed a lot. I miss so many people who were first in our circles. Pinterest has changed blogging, too, I don't do Facebook or Pinterest. I can't do all three. I barely have time to blog!
I know...I barely have time to do anything!! What are you using to edit your photos?? I used Adobe Lightroom now and have several different ones I add when I export, but before that, I edited in iphoto, then added the watermark with "annotation" in "Preview" later.
DeleteHurrah for you. Great post. It is really discouraging that a few can really spoil the pot for everyone. I think 99% of blogland is so kind and encouraging and then the 1% just screams so loud they want all of the attention. I watermark too and I also reserve the right to remove a comment that should not have been posted in the first place. Your home and your posts are all so encouraging, don't let the 1% get to you. I feel sorry for them, they must be very miserable people. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteMarty, you are one of the first to come by and welcome me.:-) Thanks for always being encouraging and positive!
