Question Watermarks on photos for my blog ????

Do I need to watermark photos of my cards that showcase Stampin' Up products in? I have never done this before, however always try to note below the photo of the products and brands I use. Can anyone answer my questions?? Any SU! Demos that can help?

Ahh I'm worried that I've broken the policy...:confused:

According to DS, "yes", they must be on each individual picture. Not just beneath, above, or to the side.

But, as I'm sure many SU! Demos know, DS can give conflicting answers (between themselves, even).

HTH!

Hey Rebecca!

I inquired about this today and got the same answer - it should go on all the pictures with Stampin' Up stuff. As you know, so far I had a watermark without Stampin' Up copyright, but will be redoing all of my pictures. :-( Thank God for Photoshop and duplicating layers. :-)

Talk to you later,

D.

images � Stampin' Up! � {NO YEAR}

It would be for anyone- a copyright is on the images, no matter how used or by whom. (Includes papers too). I'm not sure how much compliance there is on this, but that is the basic 'right way' to do it.

I can't remember where I saw this tutorial first......(I think it may have been in one of the forums here at SCS. Great tutorial;)

I finally heard from DS in writing - they want demos AND customers who upload their creations to have:

images � Stampin' Up! �

BELOW or NEAR the image. The year is NO LONGER required. That is new since the last time I spoke with Demo Support.

Hope this clarifies things!

No, you don't need Photoshop. Here's a thread where someone pointed to a free program called GIMP 2. If you scroll down into the thread, I gave directions for how I use it to make a watermark.

Gimp is free. gimp.org
Or if you're a Mac person, you can try Pixelmator $59 (unless you got it with your Macheist bundle this year). It's pretty nice.
