You can try googling for Invisible Watermarking, but as to how well they work is another thing. Really only keeping the images to a smaller size is the only option. And not posting your best work, but work that you think is on the fairly good side.
I am not worried about clients myself. If I did have them then I would set up private galleries for them to choose what they wanted printed. Then watermarking them makes sense, and putting up the best work does as well. She does not state in regards to where she is posting them. For all I know it is in a forum like here, or on Flikr, in which case a watermark does nothing. So you do not post your absolute best, you save those for your site, which still leaves you unprotected fully, but less so than other places. Then you limit the size, and watermark.butterflygirl921 wrote:

If you don't post your best stuff on your sites how do you get clients? I know mine don't like the average work.
