This is a brief excerpt from F-Stoppers
Photojournalist John D McHugh was so fed up with copyright infringement on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram that he has taken drastic measures and built an iPhone app called Marksta specifically to add watermarks to images uploaded to social networks. Apparently he was really tired of people stealing his images without credit, and came up with a solution that helps him and other photogs who feel the same.
McHugh partnered with app developers to streamline the process of adding watermarks to images. He says he realizes that he could just use his laptop and add watermarks in Photoshop, but that takes more time than he is willing to invest in just sharing images. He also says that Photoshop, being an expensive piece of software, is just not something that his “wife and friends” can’t use. He says that though some developers have already done this on other apps “you can tell these applications have been created by developers, not photographers.”As far as what you want the watermark to read, whatever you want to write, Marksta promises to make it simple and fast.
