Protecting Your Images

PROTECTING YOUR IMAGES

  Your original photographs and artwork can easily be stolen from your website. There are a variety of techniques to protect your graphics, some more effective than others.  
     

TRANSPARENT WATERMARKS

 

With this type of watermarking a transparent logo or copyright notice is put over the image, making it pretty unattractive to anyone for reuse. The transparent image can be smaller than the one shown.


We can put our standard waternark on your images, or develop a custom watermark for you from your logo.
 
     

DIGIMARC ™

 



This photo contains a "Digimarc" ™. You will likely not be able to see it, but it is there.

Digital watermarking technology discreetly weaves information into all forms of media content by making subtle adjustments to the content itself.

Although generally imperceptible to the human eye, a digital watermark can be recognized by a simple reader device or application enabled with Digimarc software.    Read more about it!


     

SLICING

 

  
The slicing technique makes copying an image very difficult because the image is actually split up into many different sections. Someone wishing to copy would need to copy each and every section which would be extremely time consuming.

 
     

TECHNIQUES THAT ARE OFTEN USED BUT ARE NOT EFFECTIVE

 

BACKGROUND IMAGE

This technique makes your image a background image. Unfortunately it can still be copied.

 
 

NO RIGHT CLICK

There is also a technique called "no right click". The copier gets a message that they connot copy when they right click on the image to copy it.
It does work well, but tends to annoy those people who are determined to steal the image and if they have enough expertise they will find a way to get the image anyway. But it's the best way to go.
