Trey Ratcliff on Why He Doesn’t Use Watermarks

One of his reasons stands out to me:

> We do register our images with the copyright office, so if someone uses an image commercially without a proper license, it is an easy lawsuit. Easy. We’ve had many many wins (often which happen even before you go to court), but we can’t talk about them because it’s always in the paperwork. But there are many online articles you can find out about our lawsuits… everyone from Time magazine to the Sydney Newspapers.

Keep that in mind when you are trying to decide whether or not to slap some awful watermark on your photos.[^fn1]
