Not trying to step on any toes, but that watermark would suggest this isn't your pic, or at least isn't a public domain item?

Let me explain my pics. All pictures captured by me has the SEGA watermark from now on. This is to put it simply to comply with the Proprietary Rights in SEGA TOS for the use of any of their images. Since I use the highest queality jpeg compression possible without the differing of details the image is cropped therefore re-watered mark. If the picture is a contribution from a ODS member/associate who i am a part of it will have a 22% opacity watermark which is usually very discreet. None of my pictures feature any of my characters only of members in ODS. If a picture is used not featuring a member i simply just have the Sega water mark (see GH 470 for a example), also with full consent www.sega-ods.com for a listing of the members i featured.--Natasha Milarose

It was the ods watermark that had me wondering, that's all. Thought it may've been a pic grabbed from their site with or without permission, that's all.

• That's alright, I guess, but I'd still prefer to have pictures without any watermark. I understand the SEGA logo thing, but even that isn't really a concern for me, considering I have never once heard of them being at all upset about sites such as this dropping the logo. --Qwerty 20:53, 26 February 2008 (CST)
