I always get ask how do I protect my images on the world wide web&hellip;it used to be a bit complicated and tiresome but with Aperture 2 it is easy and straight forward.

Some thief&rsquo;s go through great length and spend time removing even opaque watermarks in Photoshop, there is never a 100% guarantee even with Aperture and its automatic watermarking.

The perfect solution is don&rsquo;t display your Images on the web&hellip;but I think these days are over and we all like our images out there&hellip;so how do we protect our images?


...Make sure your images are in gif or jpg low resolution but still good enough to show them in their full glory.   Avoid high resolution images, it is an open invitation for thief&rsquo;s and they slow down your website.

...I recommend placing an opaque watermark over the entire image or covering one third of the image, this is much harder to retouch.   Don&rsquo;t place your &copy; COPYRIGHT name and notice on the sides or at the bottom, this can be easily cropped out.

Choose an opaque setting you are comfortable with and is not to distracting from the overall visual.   (Opacity settings eg.0.1 to 1.0 all depends a bit on the image, light or dark) With different options available the opaque slider in Aperture 2 is a good start how the watermark is going to look, just try different settings until you satisfied.

...I provided you a link to &ldquo;How do I protect my images online&rdquo; a great article I found recently with some additional options and tutorials to save guard your images from those thief&rsquo;s. 


...      This puts information on the image itself, so when they download it, they have your copyright information right on it.]]></content:encoded></item></channel>
