[QUOTE=Zeemlapje;43557908]do you also put watermarks on family reunion pics??[/QUOTE]
A lot of people see and share my photos so I watermark almost all of them.

aaand?
[editline]16th January 2014[/editline]
watermarks look amateur and cheap in a lot of cases tbh
oh no someone might steal a photo of my face
mysterio that might just be the least effective watermark possible like if someone want's to steal your picture

I guess it's less about preventing stealing but more about promoting yourself.

Yet another selfie, which I'm making an entire set of to see what happened to me during my time.

Ding ding ding ding, we have a winner. The watermark is used for self promotion. When my photos get shared on Tumblr and Facebook, people not only see the photo but also the logo of my business and my name which generates a lot more page views and likes/follows.

Amatuer and cheap? From the look of the photos you've posted, you'd know a lot about that.

I think he was giving you general advice, not a dig into you, because lazily split-toned photos of entry level sports cars are just so PRIMO!
