Watermark your photos for free with PicMarkr
Whenever you upload a photo to the web you run the risk that someone will download your photo and decide use it themselves. PicMarkr makes uploading your photos to the web a little safer by allowing you to add a custom watermark to your photos. The whole watermarking process takes less than a minute and watermarks can be added to up to five photos at a time. Photos can either be uploaded directly to the site to be watermarked or pulled from your Flickr account. PicMarkr offers three different types of watermarking options: Text watermark, Image watermark, and Tiled watermark. Once an image is watermarked it can be downloaded directly to your computer or uploaded to your Flickr account.
Check out examples of all three watermarking options after the jump.
Text Watermark
The Text watermark produces a small piece of text on your photo with eight different text/background options and the ability to place it in one of nine different preset locations. This could be great if you want to put your URL on a photo, but the text is pretty small and depending on where you decide to put it could also easily be cropped off by an image thief.Image Watermark
The image watermark option allows you to upload a logo or image off your computer and then place it in one of nine preset locations. The size of your logo is dependent on the size of the file you upload so you could potentially put a fairly substantial sized watermark on your image.Tiled Watermark
The tiled watermark option allows you to take text, or another image and tile it over your photo. As far as protecting your image this is probably your best option, it also the most obtrusive for viewers.
So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...

Too bad this isn't a free downloadable program and it's only online. Doesn't give you that much control.

That dog is awesome. If it's someone's on downloadsquad, it should become the mascot. It should definitely appear in more posts if it is someone's dog here.

The picture is of my dog Tucker. Internet fame goes right to his head, I don't know that he could handle much more.
