I thought the copyright thing was a default setting. I didn't realize you could change it on individual photos. I'm sure I have no photos good enough that anyone would ever want to 'steal' one. ;-) However, it does give me a strange sense of security to see my name on it--like, oh, that one's mine, isn't it? Although I guess there are a few I've uploaded that I might want to disown!
Paul, I hadn't put it together that you did not have copyright info on your photos, or that you weren't 'liking' those that did! That's an interesting perspective that I hadn't thought of--but again, it's not something I've given much thought to at all. To me, it's just sort of like writing my name in a book before loaning it to someone--it's not my assessment of the quality of the book I'm lending out, just a reminder to the other person to return it to me. But that's probably a naive perspective on the internet.
Now I am self-conscious that I have a 'copyright' on my photos, and am wondering if I should turn it off, if it's something that annoys others to see, especially since my photos are generally run of the mill and not stellar.
