Easy Watermarking in GIMP
http://registry.gimp.org/node/21024 is where you need to go to get a nice SCM that will let you easily do a 1 click watermarking of a photo for posting on the web. It will completely fill the image with a very light watermark of your text. Plus you can adjust the opacity of the watermark if you want it to be a bit more visible.
Works like a charm and makes life easier so you don't have your images stolen so quickly.
If you click on the image, you will see it is covered in a light "timothy gray" watermark all over it. (Ignore my playing around at the bottom with the "your text" this is not a part of the linked watermarking script.
I increased the opacity to 10% so that it was more visible. The script sets it at 3% so that it is barely there but still detectable if you are looking for it.
The nice part is you can make the watermark text as large as you want. I NEVER post a full res image to the net, so my example at 32pt text is perfect for the 1024 pixel width image.
