It took a moment to see the barn. Nice but the watermark really detracts from the image

Watermarks usually detract from the image. The whole point is to deter others from using the image without the photographer's permission.

The water mark kills the photo, but the photo looks awesome. I've been posting watermark free images on this site forever, I'm not really sure what someone could do with a 800x336 image.

Isn't it true that anyone proficient in photo editing can edit watermarks right out?? You could always use a smaller watermark and put it somewhere on the picture that you can't crop out.

If you're serious about having your work critiqued then you should show it at it's best, not plastered with text. Also, consider the fact that nobody is going to steal a photo of a black and white sky with a tiny barn off a website that is frequented almost exclusively by photographers. People mostly use watermarks to stop them stealing proof photos or photos that could otherwise be sold.
