- skhr0680 5y agoI understand where you’re coming from, but just finding things can be a lot of effort. If someone wants the images with no watermark, they can look them up
- szszrk 5y agoOh, so I can go to your blog or science article with those nice, detailed posts, take all the photos you made yourself and then make a shitty article on the Internet including your hard work. I will just in case slam my own watermark, so it will look like I did it myself and will not include you as an author. Apparently this sounds fair to you!
