In light of the bad people out there who steal other people's photos and use them in scams, hoaxes, fake profiles, or those sad, disturbed people who fake losing a child for the attention, I feel it is time again to share:
How to watermark your photos!
It is so easy!
A. Find an app/program
If you are using a PC desktop, a quick, free, and easy way is to download Picasa.
If you have a mac, iphoto can do it too! Simply upload your photo of choice, add text, and save. **Link included to make this super easy!
If you are using your phone, there are dozens and dozens of apps that will let you add text to your photos. I use Photo Grid, there is Font Studio, Pic Lab, Text on Photo, Photo Editor..on and on and on. And they're free!
**I have included links to make it super easy! Please download one!

B. Add your watermark
So what you want to remember is to:
1. center the text
2. make is dark enough to read
3. make it big enough that it cannot be removed . This is SUPER important!!
EXAMPLE!
C. Save!
Save that photo and share away!
D. Share this link!
You gotta share so that other parents can protect their images!
Thank you for sharing! You are so right! We have to protect our children or grandchildren as in my case! I never even thought about someone stealing a photo of a sick child to benefit! That makes me sick to my stomach! Thanks again!
