Thank's for the answers, and for all the pictures you're collecting every day =)

The new watermarks still suck. You guys just lost yet another regular viewer. Why not just take pride in other people trying to copy your site rather than annoying your users?

Thank you, thank you for toning down the water marks.These are much more acceptable, and while , personally, I disagree with your using them, I can understand you protecting your work. I very much enjoy a few minutes to unwind at the end of work, and the pictures you display are part of my wind down time before dinner.

But never-the-less, this picdump is still a disappointment. Never mind with the watermarks and shit. But thanks anyway for doin' a great job finding pics all day.

'toning down'?

sound like izi cares more about people 'stealing' their photos than they do the user experience. people are going to steal the photos anyway, guys. start caring about your users first. the watermark is terrible.

Lot's o good pics. I read your FAQ and it's OK. But i started to wonder, what if all sites like this and blogs were putting on watermarks. Would there be like 4 - 5 watermarks on all photos in every picdump out there?

I will look for the IZI stamp on other sites to see how many who do take their photos from this site before the watermarks are removed. Thanks for using the text only.

To be honest I dont care about the watermarks...but since you brought it up izy.

It seems hypocritical to put watermarks on photos because people are stealing photos that you had no permission to post in the first place.

I think you guys do great. Forget about haters.

To hell with the whiny prigs. They have no lives anyway. We support you IZI.

I checked the other site and saw that they are rehashing all of their old pics. LOL

Let them actually work for once!

lol those complaining about watermark cant cant copy pic here anymore and repost it to other site lol lamers

for those that dont know, # 69 is what the inside of a can of whoop ass looks like. lmao @ 72 very nice

these watermarks are waaay better, the previous ones were totally distracting me in every photo. thanks again for all the work on collecting the pictures every day.

Forget the nonsense, keep up the good work!

thank you for a great pic dump!

lame - I dont like the new watermarks at all. Ive seen half of these images already anyway, but your site used to be counted on to see them clearly without fuzzing them up and overlaying garbage on top. These arent your images to watermark none of the first 100 have any source credits and its not like you credit ANY of those.

watermarks are a bit of a pain in the back side but can work around this

I'm happy that monkey thing have disappeared, but can you make the "izismile.com" picture a little bit smaller??? thanks... :)

dont put the watermark on a free picture please thanks

NICE PICS....at least keep u r water mark little small....

today's watermarks are much better
maybe a little smaller or less visible

It's pretty simple thought for talking about competitors and only webmaster understand this matter! let me help do a little "Explanation for Dummies" Here they are:
1.First Izismile Pays his Bill For His server maintenance and internet Bandwidth
Fact: Internet Bandwidth its not cheap anyway a.k.a Expensive (go googling & Find out by your self)
2.All thousands and much more to come filty spammers a.k.a admins from other competitor websites with their traditional filty laziness style come this server just for download and taking advantages for downloading images which also been compiled with a lot lot of effort of time. From This point we'll already know what will happen to izismile poor server (Elephanting bandwidth cost/$$$ additional server just for trashers plus Your competitors will become stronger and you just got weaken in traffic which means lots of thousands hours efforts just under risk.. what happen if this happen to you?)
4.As an admin traditional lazy fatass, soon after they find any new interesting website for their additional sources, usually they will going to the homepage. This Watermarks will prevent New Lazy fatass competitor come to visit this website just for looking images to repost as the result where izismile traffics being competed and getting noiser & Noiser (this also benefiting us as the true loyal visitor, so we can browse izismile with more stable & faster)
5.My Hopefully for Picdump as the top/first post in every izismile page so they'll(competitor candidates) goin to see watermarks first and got bored and canceling their will for raping the content again & again:)
6.@lolipop agree with u
Hey Izi You Can make the watermark with more stylist and cooler without annoying the viewers' sight ;)

geez ppl, if you dont like the watermarks, dont look at them.... go find other sites where they copy all of their pics from izismile!

thanks for the good picdump daily! I don't care if watermark on or not.
Its very normal you do because other webmasters copy/paste almost the hole picdump in 15 minutes while you guys spend couple hours searching for a uniek picdump!

Keep up the good work!

Watermarks !? Why the fuck ?
Ok....Adios izismile....

I see sites like the c***e and the b***y steal from Izi every day.
It takes time and effort to trawl the web for pics, so YES! Brand the pictures.
They're NOT overly in your face, and they don't obscure the images.

Further more, many sites brand their images.
Funny thing is a lot of them crop off the old watermarks then replace them with their own.
You don't like it? Try having hours of your research work taken form you and credited to someone else. Believe me, it sucks.

I like Izi, and I approve of the watermarks.

I support the watermark idea, and I'm glad you switched to less visible watermarks (yesterdays big ones were just to big<;)). I'm visiting izismile everyday to break the boredom of my IT work so KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! IT experts everywhere are counting on you!:)

don't care about the watermark.. the picdumps always make my day.. :D

Watermarks are ok in my book.

what is the girl in number 2 doing?

Put 48h AT LEAST!
I am sick to see your pictures copied to another sites.(t**c***e for example)

Great job Izi,your site allways puts smile on my face.

these pictures are up on other websites HOURS before they ever get posted here. These guys take themselves way too serious....

where was 117 taken??

My opinion - i respect ur work Izi, bc u find a lot of pics so u should put watermark, not bc there pics are urs, BUT u did hard job. i understand it :).

nice collection thanks for sharing

To the people who are upset about the water mark; you obviously have no idea how these sites work and how frutrating it is to have people steal you work. The water marks are not bothersome at all. If they are needed so beit. Izismile is taking them off a couple of days after posting. Calm down.

Thanks for answering our questions, izismile team :)
