That defeats the purpose of the watermark. A watermark is there to protect the photographer. Not enhance the viewing of the people on the net. People that upload big enough files without a watermark through the subject are who is enabling piracy and honestly all the registering in the world won't help since most of the theft will go undetected. Serious professionals will always watermark in this fashion since the pic is merely a sample and the watermark in my example really doesn't interfere with the viewing of the subject. Or they just disable the scripts so the picture can't be downloaded to the person's HD by right clicking and saving. Still the best ways to protect your work.
