How can you protect any pictures posted of kids from being used or photoshopped if they are posted to sites? I have taken some really good kid pictures with some interesting expresssions. I am scare to share because I don't want them scarfed for something like child porn. My daughter had one scarfed, photoshopped and used to sell clothes in a Chinese site. My daughter attempted to track them down the person and a woman claimed that was her daughter. My granddaughter is not Chinese. The picture was scarfed from facebook. Using the face to sell clothes in one thing, but my biggest fear is child porn.

You don't put them on the internet.

How would a photo of clothed kids playing or even posing be utilized for child porn ?

Like what this Chinese clothing line did. They photoshopped their clothes onto the child's face and body.. This could be done for less honorable uses. This was lifted from Facebook. I enjoy taking pictures of people, kids, raw emotions, but I don't want to risk unintended use. I feel like I photograph emotions well and would like to post these to get others opinions. I may not be as good as I think and it could be the little green people running around in my head lying to me. :-D Do you think a faint watermark over the faces would work?

the ONLY thing that works is not posting your pictures on the net...trust me.

I can take ANY water mark off any picture...it's just not that hard.

How about you putting it for a short time on your own website and just put a link to it? Then you could take it down within a day or so and lessen the risk? Just an idea.
