Protecting photos with watermark or "lock"

I would like to protect my photos on my Web site so that they cannot be copied. I have heard that I can watermark them in a way that doesn't show on the Web site but will show up if someone tries to copy them... is that possible? Or is there a way to lock the photos so they can't be copied at all?

The invisible watermark method is one where text is added to a photo in a manner that it can't be seen by the naked eye but it can by a special application (http://www.dphotojournal.com/adding-invisible-watermark-to-your-photos/).
With a 3rd party editor like Photoshop Elements you can put varying TEXT on a photo.
You might be able to do it with one of the watermarking applications found thru a search at VersionTracker.com (search for "watermark") if you have a transparent image of your watermark available to apply by those applicatons.
The sizes of photos that end up in iWeb (except for those in a album or gallery where you set the download size large) is at a max of 800 x 600 pixels and not suitable for decent printing at much above 4 x 3 inches.

  • I bought LR 5 on Oct 16, 2014. I just tried to export photos with watermark and it wont work. After reading tutorials and following directions, only a few photos out of 100 show up with watermark, but not everytime. Is this a bug and how does it get fixed

    I bought LR 5 Oct 16 this year. Why doesn't my watermark work when I export photos? I followed tutorials and still it does not work. Once, a few photos out of about 100 exported with the watermark, but only once. Is this a bug? how to fix?  Also, how to I get rid of unwanted presents?

    Are you exporting as JPG or TIFF or PSD?
    Any other format (including "Original") will not show a watermark.

  • PSE8 - Help with Watermarking vs Cropped Photos

    I have recently been experimenting with Watermarking, using the "Process Multiple Files" option.  It works great, except for one thing:  when watermarking a photo that has been cropped from its original size, the watermark gets cropped as well. Please see this link for an example of what I mean.
    The cropped photos have been saved as separate files from the original, so why is this happening?
    Can anyone tell me, a: how to fix it, b: how to keep it from happening in the future, and/or c:, what am I doing wrong???  Please?
    Thanks in advance!

        I'm sorry to learn that you have endured the audio issues outlined in your post for almost 2 years SusanLM1! This is certainly not normal! Let's get to the bottom of this issue, first please confirm your phone model; your mention that you have the iPhone 5 but your post is on the iPhone 5S forum. Also, share the iOS version currently installed on your phone. What is your ZIP code? Does this happen mainly while you make/receive calls from a particular location (home, office, etc)?

  • Can i password protect photos?

    Wanting to password protect photos, and remove from camera roll. Is this possible?

    There is no way to password protect photos on iPhones.  Why would you need this when you should be passcode locking the entire phone?
    You can remove photos from Camera Roll by connectint to a computer with a photo import app, importing them to that app and deleting from Camera Roll (most apps will do this).  The photos are no longer on the phone at all.  You can sycn them back to the phone in a new folder, but not password protected.

  • Password protect Photos & Movies

    Can anyone tell me of away to password protect certain folders in photos and movies. I would like to keep certain photo's and movies private. I have searched the App store and there appear to be several Apps that protect files, but none that protect photo's and/or movie files. Thanks for your input.

    There is no way to do this. You can apply a passcode lock to the iPhone, but there's no way to restrict access to individual pics/movies (the only exception is songs/movies +purchased in iTunes+ with an Explicit tag, which can be blocked using Restrictions on the iPhone).

    I have a photo of an ice surface and another of a flower. Now I want to create a merged photo with the flower lying under the ice. I understand that I shall use the function "Layer" and have even read in the manual and looked on a video, but that information is not sufficiently detailed for me. I have tried several options, but I come now way. Generally it seems that your information is only for the ones who can, not for the people who can´t although it is we who really need to learn. Please give me a step by step (click by click) information on how I can get the ice above the flower and then make the ice partly transparent so the flower is seen underneath. Please send me an e-mail Erik Solbu [email protected]

    Open a new document big enough for your image. Then additional open your ice and flower image as well. Copy each and paste it into your blank document. They will be placed on their own separate layers.
    Make sure in your layers panel. (Bottom right) the ice is above the flower, by dragging it in place. In that same layers panel click the ice layer to select in and find the opacity meter above. Drag to the left until you get the effect you desire.

    Yes, it is.
    The easiest way for me is access the custom shape tool,  and within that the Symbols library. You will find the copy right sign. Just drag it out. It will be on its own layer. Enter the rest of the info with the Type tool.
    The symbol can also be found in the character map on a Windows system.
    If you have multiple photos that you wish to mark, it is very efficient to make a copyright brush and apply  with a  click of the mouse.

  • Can't share Aperture photos with iWork and iLife

    I can't see my Aperture photos in any iWork '08 or iLife '08 application. I am running 1.5.4; sharing previews is enabled in Aperture Prefs; previews for my entire Library set to 1280px (and there are definitely previews for every master image). However, I see nothing in any iWork '08 or iLife '08 app – no Aperture 'disclosure triangle' in the Media pane. Nothing. Zip.
    I have rebuilt the Aperture database (Command + Option on start-up) for all 242 projects, but still no go.
    The only thing I think it could be is that my 'Aperture Library.aplibrary' (all 95GB of it) is stored in its entirety on a different hard drive, with an alias pointing to it from my '~/user/Pictures' folder on my boot drive (which it shares with iPhoto Library). I thought alias' were supposed to be transparent to the OS and the other apps would be able to see my 'Aperture Library.aplibrary' as if it were on my primary drive (i.e., the same drive). Is there a permissions thing happening here?
    This one has got me stumped. Any thoughts on why I can't share my Aperture photos with iWork '08 or iLife '08 would be gratefully received.

    Solved it!!!
    I just went a little berserk with the plist files in ~/user/Library/Preferences (sorry, not very scientific....).
    Interestingly, in addition to iWorks and iLife apps having their own preference files, there is also a file called 'com.apple.iApps.plist'. This was locked for some reason. Anyway, it and all the other pref files got trashed and then the trash emptied. Then I restarted my Mac and opened up iPhoto.
    Bingo!
    Same for Pages, etc.
    Thanks to all who took time out of their day to help me -- much appreciated.
