hi mike,
got a friend who shoots weds. he runs all his proofs throug photo cs with an
automated action that simply places a semi transparent 'proof only'
diagonally across the pic. it wouldn't be worth the effort trying to clone /
heal it out. he did once get asked to provide a set without the watermark,
to which he replied certainly, on receipt of your cheque. he got one the
next day....
