Watermarks are really needed to clarify the source of the images. and it also helps to promote the forum! Please include this feature in our admin pannels, thank you! bounce

Before uploading the photo into your forum's gallery, why don't you add your own photo's watermark?

Or, you can tell your forum members to do the same, Very good

I voted no, tongue

I voted no,

if it's just personal or couple uploads, that would be easy to do. However, I'm talking about massive uploads, auto watermarks are really necessary!
Plus, not everyone knows about editing software, and extra tasks may reduce members' willingness to upload.

If they don't know, then they can learn.

Also, if they don't have a clue what a graphic designing software is, then I'm guessing that they are using the Internet to search and find images then upload them to the forum's gallery and if the watermark is placed on a copyrighted image, then there's going to be another story with a sad ending...

So, your words to try and make me switch sides was a failure,

Sorry, I voted no. Master Marc makes a good point about copyrighted images.

The watermark is a good idea. But it should be added as an option.

Voted yes.

I vote no. You can add the images with the watermark yourself.
