    User Gallery Watermark

    An idea I had (that obviously wouldn't have changed MD9s problem) is to incorporate a watermark automatically into photos uploaded to the user gallery a la biglines.

    Yep, not a bad idea... Though it only works with photos that are uploaded in the user-galleries (or possibly uploaded as attachments) and wouldn't work with hotlinked pics.

    Personally, I hate the watermarks biglines does. I really don't like when a picture comes up on my screensaver that someone else took of me, and one of my freinds says "sick pic" i'm like, "yea, that was an awesome day" and they're all like "whatevs dude, thats not you, see the logo in the corner? liar"

    its not that hard just to write your name on em in photoshop.

    Good point by Hemas though. I bet a majority of the linked pics on this board aren't in the TGR user galleries....

    indeed but you can't expect tgr to police the world (and I bet an easy 70% of pictures are either biglines or the UG here)

    i was kinda trying to be funny, as usualy it failed miserably.

    my point was that, if someone else posts a TR, that you happen to be in, they aren't going to email you the pics, they'll just post em, and its nice to have unwatermarked copies as well.

    Most photo editing software has a watermark option.

    IMO that goes against the maggot culture of self-moderation. Kinda like letting the terrorists win.
