[Phono-L] Protect Your Phono Photos

[Norman Bruderhofer]

Thank you, Loran! I think it is very important to create awareness.

Let me add to more recommendations:

If you have a larger collection of pictures to watermark, I recommend 
the batch file conversion feature of IrfanView:

or XnView:

Both are more technical but very handy for more than about 10 
pictures. Both programs are free for personal use.
