Since I make no pretense about being the creative force behind the images, I like to leave the watermark.

I occasionally remove the mark when I crop or modify the image.

The watermark might lead people back to my profile. I see that as a plus.

Come to think of it. I almost always drop links to the source of images that I use.

BTW: The thing I find amusing is when people copy images from istockphoto and leave the watermark. Such people advertise to the world that they are simply copy-and-pasting images. The iStock contract allows people to use watermarked images in the design phase. They want you to purchase the rights on publishing.

!LOL
