People that put big watermarks on images that aren't really that good really annoy me. It's like they think the internet is out to get them, just looking for the next
blurry cat image to steal. I've always tried to keep mine small in the past because frankly, my work isn't good enough to warrant a huge watermark. I've been messing around with this new Photoscape program though and its got a really cool feature that allows you to apply a border to the image. Not only does this look awesome, now my images won't have any annoying letters blocking the subject. Sure people could just crop off my name, but if you are going to go to all that work just to have a 640x480 pixel image go right ahead! I'm not worried about people stealing my work. I just want the people that see my images to know where they can find more, or how to contact me.
Anyways here are some examples, the edges of the frames tend to blend in a bit here on the blog but on other sites it really makes the image pop! Any feedback is appreciated though (good or bad)! Click the comment link below... it won't bite :)
I think the changes you have made add that extra special touch to your work. Your work is better than you think it is. I for one love the first photo you added to this blog! The frame gave it that special something I felt it needed to make it really stand out in a croud! Keep up the good work Josh! Don't doubt your talent!
