You know the problem. Your images and photos on your website are
accessible to everyone.

After a while your property is being used by others in their homepages,
forum or in newsgroups.

By blending a watermark into your pictures you can prevent this kind of
theft. Discreetly of course, without destroying the overall impression.

With Batch Watermark Creator you are able to include a text or an
emblem at different places in your images. You can choose intensity,
font, color etc. as you wish to give your picture your personal
signature.

A batch process gives you the opportunity to handle large amounts of
images. You will be able to process thousands of files in a few
seconds.

Otherwise, It can edit picture,batch create thumb,resize,draw border
etc. It is website editor's powerful assistant.

You can download from

  This is brazen commercial advertising. Advertising is not
allows by charter in the rec.photo discussion groups.
Advertising by _individuals_ not businesses is specifically
allowed and encouraged in the rec.photo.marketplace
hierarchy which was created especially for this purpose.

It's nice that you are trying to uphold the purity of usenet,
but who are you going to report the unwanted posting to?
I think ignoring it and/or a nasty email to the originator would
be more effective. Why keep the thread alive longer than otherwise?

 It was reported to Google where the spam originated.
Google may or may not decide to do anything about it. Since
Google is not an ISP there isn't much they can do except
drop the member but he/she can sign up with many others who
supply acess to news groups. Some of these suppliers are not
particularly ethical.
 Nasty e-mail to an originator is _never_ in order. It
would not discourage anyone and, for that matter, the real
e-mail address of the spammer is hardly ever available. The
best action is to complain to the originating ISP where it
can be determined. Of course, many spammers forge or spoof
the entire header or use open relays, which still exist.
There is really not much that can be done about them
although complaining to every ISP in the route trace can
sometimes help.
 Any commercial enterprize advertising here is cheating on
the face of it. They are looking for free advertising, that
is not the purpose of Usenet. We all pay for this service,
unless you get your internet access free. I do not, so I
have some right to insist that users follow the rather
limited rules of the road including posting in accordance
with the charters.
 The rec.photo groups have stayed relatively free of spam
mostly because of social pressure here and the number of
participants who DO complain to ISP's. Anyone can find out
how to complain about spam by doing a simple web search. I
encourage others on this list to educate themselves. Volume
of complaints _does_ make a difference.
