Ebay photos stolen

[JeffH]

When you are listing a new item select "Sell similar" from a previous listing and make whatever changes necessary to suit the new listing. That is quicker than doing a listing from scratch and your Format, Payment details, Postage details, Buyer requirements, Return policy and Additional instructions will already be there (you can change them if you need to); and, if you had watermarked pictures in the previous listing then any pictures for the new listing will be watermarked too.

Next to "Describe your item" at the top of the listing page is the link "Add or remove options". Click on that and a pop up box of options will open.
Click on the "Photos" option and that will bring up the two watermark options. Tick the box(es) you want then select "save" at the bottom of the popup box.
It's that simple (even trout can do it).

P.S. Have a look at all the options in case there may be another that you would like to use.

yep
thank-you got it now
I thought it was form the actual photo upoad section

ps now i understand why the cheats simply put a boarder around the photos they steal
the watermark just sits at the bottom of the photo

Jen, The photo editing program you use should be able to insert a watermark of your choice on each photo as you wish.  

If the watermark is placed squarely on the photo, you would be able to put paid to the Ebay slug who is stealing your images.  

I could help if you use PhotoScape for editing.

I hate Photoshop and therefore never use it.

Still no luck with ebay. It is like talking to a brick wall.

Kim has helped to watermark some of the listings.
Will redo a lot of the photos and put the watermark on the item and not in the corner so that they can just put the black border around it.

Thank you for all your help and suggestions.

It would be nice if Ebay has some competition to push them to lift their game. I'm still waiting however ...

Just received this email, which sounds interesting.... I'll look into it when I have time.

Hi there,

Created in 2015, San Francisco, Blockai is a copyright platform that uses blockchain technology to help artists claim ownership of their creations and protect their copyright.

Earlier this year the company raised $547,000 in seed funding to relaunch as a blockchain copyright service.

The company has recently launched their first integration, "Blockai for Twitter". When you claim a copyright using #blockai the application writes a permanent record on the blockchain. In order to particpate, a Blockai account is needed.

After the creation of your account just tweet the image that you want to register and include the hashtag #blockai.

Check out this week's BNC. Bitcoin & Blockchain infographic now copyrighted on the blockchain.
