I just browsed Photos.com and viewed a few images on the site.

I noticed that there isn't much information attached to the photos. For example, the contributor's name doesn't seem to be there, so there is no way to look at other images from the same contributor. Not only that, but there are no watermarks on the large image previews (which are blog size). Doesn't anyone else have a problem with this?

I was looking there today and saw it as well> I was surprised to see such large preview without any watermark on them and no copyright information whatsoever.

There are watermarks on mine. Do you mean the thumbnails? They are tiny and I don't think any site uses watermarks on them.

When you hover over thumbnails with mouse you can see a larger preview without a watermark. only if you click on an image, another page opens, and there images are watermarked.

I see now, that is stupid. It is still quite small but they should definitely put a watermark on it.

The watermark is only there for people that don't login. If you join the site, you will see that nothing is watermarked.

That's even worse than I thought.
