Hey guys, As some of you may know couple months ago I got a Canon 7D. Deeply in love with it. Since then I have started playing a game called "Airsoft" I attend the same site every 2 weeks and have become their secondary photographer, I send most/all my good shots to their main photographer on the monday and they go up on the official website, However I feel like I am getting overlooked slightly?

Since the first few games my shots have gotten a lot better and I have started considering watermarking them, However some shots are photoshopped and used as banners etc for their facebook page (Last week was a zombie game, one of my photos was edited into a banner) Which of course by-passes the watermark.

I love taking the photos and love them going up and I don't want to seem like a jerk and start saying "I WANT MY NAME EVERYWHERE" But it would be nice (If I upset anyone I will lose my cheap entrance fee)

What do you guys reckon?

I think talking to the staff there would be the better option, rather than ending up in a situation where you are having to copyright everything.

But also getting your stuff published is usually the first step into any bigger game, so asking them to maybe once a month give a "thanks thread" or something similar might not hurt ?

    • You've tried DuckDuckGo and Brave Search, now get serious with SearXNG

      OK so SearXNG is a meta search engine that you can install locally or use via a public instance. It scrapes other search engines which you choose and then sorts the results. Not as complicated as multiple relays

      The only difference here is that you think you came up with these reasons. You didn't. These age old fearmongering lies (that were NEVER true) were funded by and the anger stoked by Putin through proxies like Farage (and later in the USA, Trump) and filtered down through the skinheads, Neonazis, etc. until it reached the uninformed, ignorant, and gullible -- never realizing they were being played for fools against their own best interests. Even now, despite all of the EVIDENCE proving that Brexit was a terrible mistake for ALL citizens of the UK and that its supporters were tricked by Putin's proxies into sabotaging their own nation, you're still here defending these well-known lies as if they were ever true. Not only are they not true. They NEVER were. So, when are you going to realize that you were lied to and actually get angry at the liars and charlatans who lied to you, instead of blaming the innocent people they lied to you about?

      Ooooh! Two editorial from Paul Hill on the same day! Is it my birthday or something? 😉 Okay, let's see if I get it right. SearXNG develops a meta-search engine app. Individuals install it on their relays. Users connect to these relays to have their own identity-stripping meta-search engine instead of relying on DuckDuckGo. And some of these volunteers have listed their SearXNG instances on SearX.space. That was a lot of wrap my head around. I hope I haven't missed anything.
