The way I see huge watermarks...no matter how great the photo looks, a huge watermark just makes it look bad. Sorry there. It's distracting and takes the attention away from the subject. If you want people to appreciate/respect it, put a small watermark. IMO the one in the corner is already enough. I'm a photographer as well, and the reason why I put one is just so I can get a little credit for the photo.

My normal sig is really small, you can see it on my myspace

www.myspace.com/hgutierrezphotography

I don't normally watermark pics, but these were some much wanted shots by a few people, and it's really easy to edit out the small ones. I took the time out to take the photos, wanted to make sure I got the credit for them.

We appreciate the photos man, no doubt about it... Just wish the watermark were a little smaller so we could actually see the car... so you went to the track to get nice photos that we can't really look at.




I love you anyway though.

I submitted this to a couple websites for offers, didn't want anyone stealing them. PM me though, I'm thinking about purchasing some sort of a trench gun and wanted your input...

gunmetal looked hella sick, but I'm definately with you on that. It seems as though you used to pay money and have a ready to go car, but this one seems like it'd need some work. No more out of the box kinda thing ya know...
