New Watermark c+c

[halestorm]

Well I was bored so I made a new watermark let me know what you guys think!

No offense, but it doesn't seem terribly effective. From the time PS was open, it took 4 seconds to remove it.

Watermarks are pretentious.

But we were asked our opinion. If I'm not allowed to offer an uncensored opinion, who should I clear my comments through before posting?

Just curious.

It is a cool logo for a multiplayer gaming clan. The Hale Storm clan.

It's not big enough, and has already been mentioned easily removed. I posted this a while ago, but here's what I use. Feel free to copy.

Stradawhovious, there is no watermark that can really protect your photos Anyone with some editing skill can remove any watermark and if not, there are TONS of tuts on "how to remove watermark". Watermark is good only for letting people know, who took the photo. Or are you satisfied if you can repel computer noobs from stealing your images? Anyone who wants to steal your photo will do so and putting obtrusive watermarks won't help you nor your visitors.

OP, this watermark is small and not really that disturbing, so it's fine.
Just one note: it isn't the best idea to change watermarks very often, just because you got bored. Watermark is your signature, and if you change it too often, people will get confused and it certainly won't help your name.

On a more serious note, if I ever did decide to go with a watermark, it would be purely for advertising purposes. With facebook and other social media, I know of several photographers in my area only because I see their watermark on facebook pictures. For me it has nothing to do with preventing the client from printing pictures for free.

Well of course not. But that is 80% of the reason people tend to use them. Even if you are only using them as a signature, they still don't do their job if removed.

That being said, feel free to try your hand at removing the watermark from the post above yours.

Personally I think watermarks are silly.

Watermark goes over the subject. The little ones in the corner are signatures.

Maybe so, but they can also be good advertising.

 

[halestorm]

ok so the whole point of this watermark is to use it as a signature. I am well aware that they can be easily removed. I think its a good advertising technique for online networking that is all. I wanted feedback on how it looks. So far I have only one comment on how it looks so thanks goes out to Schwettylens. It actually is my multiplayer gaming clan logo! Haha just kidding. I dont have time nor the interest in gaming. On another note it would be nice to get some more opinions on how it looks thank you.

Yes, but what will googling H lightningbolt S yield? :roll:

OP, when you ask for peoples thoughts, you get them, whether you like it or not.
