Hi all

By my unusual and volatile Flickr stats, I suspect some of my images are often downloaded and used without my permission. I'm starting to include a copyright notice subtly, but it's easily cloned out.

Is there any way to embed tag information to a jpg so that I can occassionally do an internet search to see if they are being used online?

Thanks in advance
 
I'd ask myself where they are being used and what for.
I'm sure a lot of people will jump up and attack me for saying this but if you tighten up on your image security what's it going to lead to?
People paying you to use your images or people just not using your images and forgetting about you?
It's a difficult thing to balance and be happy about.

It's not difficult at all. If you value your work you protect it. Either by going after those who violate your copyright or by only posting low res images on the web. Simple.
 
Yup. Low res images will pretty much limit what other people can do with it.
