copyright my images

Hi, yes, you are right of course. Its the marking I want to apply. The
reason being that I want the friends that are using them on their website to
remember that I have done them a favour and that I do want some care from
them as to how they use my photos. I don't seriously expect a copyright
mark to have an impact on anyone that wants to copy them.

Hi.

Easy, just insert a text panel at the bottom of each picture "Photo by Andy
Smith". It does not need to be large in size to be noticed.

Go here http://www.picture-shark.com/ and download the free Picture Shark,
with which you can add watermarks of any degree of obscuration, using the
standard copyright symbol, your logo, or any image or character you wish.

1. Don't provide images large enough to be useful for serious printing
purposes, 800x640 pixels max.
2. Add a copyright notice in the image like 'Copyright © Year (of
first publication), Name (of Author)'. The word 'Copyright is not
strictly needed, but it won't hurt (other than take up image space).
3. Slightly cropping the image will make it easier to prove you
possess the (larger) original. Raw file versions serve a similar
purpose (without the need to crop), but that won't deter potential
perpetrators, it just helps when things go awry.

Copyright is automatically vested when you create an original work (of
art) but, depending on jurisdiction, it might help to formally have
them registered (options depend on jurisdiction).

Just do a web search for "copyright" and you'll find tons of information.
