Protect your copyright with this free app
Marksta lets you watermark photos you post online, and it's free to download - but only for a few days, so quick, download it now!
Like many creatives, photojournalist John D. McHugh is sick and tired of people ripping off photos he's posted online. So he's created Marksta, an app that enables you to watermark your work, adding your copyright information or logo direct from your iPhone before uploading them to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, or other sites.
It's very user-friendly, with a choice of fonts for your text, and the fact that the app's been designed by a pro photographer shines through.
This handy app will be sold on iTunes for $2.49/£1.49 but is currently available for free download "for a limited period" - so we recommend you grab it right away!
McHugh is also working on making the app play well with the iPad, in an update he hopes to make available "very shortly".
