Just curious are you watermarking to specifically deter unauthorized use of the image? I ask because I could see how you could use steganography to hide copyright information or simply add the watermark in such a manner that you would only be able to detect/reveal it by a specific method of color alterations. That way you would still have a case if you needed to take legal action. edit: I just realized that will probably never be answered so does anyone else feel like giving some perspective?
