^Elandria's new news article about art theft and watermarking images etc got me thinking about how we could better secure our art and protect it from those trying to pass it off as their own.

I decided that the best contribution I could make currently would be a digtal watermarking program, and I have the basic setup since I have just finished a module at Uni where we were designing steganography programs.

I understand there are already tools like this available. However this one would be free to dA memebers and in fact fcrafted to the needs you provide me with.

If you want to be part of the specification process, fire over to the forum thread here.
