smugmug - contact info/copyright on the back of prints

GerryDavid

Ive noticed on some pro printing places, they give you the ability to put a stamp on the back of the pictures, with the company name and copyright, and contact info.

This way a customer cant take the print to a print lab and have them copy it. And if they try, the lab contacts you and asks for permission, and at the same time you know what your customers ar up to.

Currently I write on the back of my prints with an acid free pen my name and copyright, and put a sticker with my website on it. This can help with further sales as well.

I think this would be a nice option for smugmug to offer.

This is not something we can do at the moment unfortunately. This is controlled by our printing partner, and as I understand it... it is not currently an option for us to customize. I could be wrong, and I will check on that... but that was my understanding
