I wonder if perhaps we should have a discussion about commercially commissioned maps posted here and watermarking. My theory is that people who come here looking at the maps and are not full time community members may just look at a map and grab it and may not have read every post in the thread. My thought is that a watermark(perhaps one that covers most of the map) however is fairly hard to ignore(assuming you speak the language of the OP) while still making enough of the map visible for us users to get an idea of how well your work turned out. Granted, watermarks are able to be defeated fairly easily, but at least at that point, you have a trail that the stealer of the image as malicious in intent...

Sorry for the threadjack... Not sure if anyone has any comments that would warrant a new thread for discussion of this topic....
