adding/making a copyright watermark

Hi,

how is the best way to add/make a copyright watermark to images.

my photos are getting a lot more interest than they used to on flickr and fear someone stealing them.

I have cs3.

Thanks

I have used a free program called Picture Shark which you can find out more about here watermark picture shark freeware image gallery protect

The pic below shows how mine turned out - note that you don't have to position the watermark where I have put it.

Re: adding/making a copyright watermark

also if you use lightroom, search this forum, i linked an addon a month or so back that adds the watermark as part of the export process, very handy.
