Watermarks

Hey guys,
Im thinking about watermarking some images that i post on my blog. The only reason is so they don't get nicked.

Is this a good idea?

I dont want to make out im a pro and the name i want to use is not a legally held company name, is there an issue?

Cheers
Trev

No, you are free to do with your photos whatever you want. just watermark them if you wish.

I started added watermarks when I found my pictures floating around facebook and some ff sites, with one entered in a SA photo contest.
Many I don't care about so I won't add the mark, but...

Interesting that you can search images now (find matches to an image in google).

1) get web address of pic
- right-click pic and copy address
2) check google
open google --> images --> select little camera icon on the right of the search box --> paste in address

I do not use watermarks in my photo's..

I use the Thumb and finger mark, I just insert my thumb or finger or both into the photo, and that ensures nobody steals my photos..
