How To Copyright my Photo before upload to my blog?

I'd just write your blog's url on the corner of each photo :) I do that when I can be bothered!

If you put your image on the net it is likely to be copied. Not much you can do about that. Most countries have a fair use policy. Generally, only companies using copyright images (illegally) for commercial reasons will be sued.

I think you just write your name, Your Blog and your URL at your photo before upload..

well, it will be difficult..the best thing is like what they said, put a watermark on it.

+1 to Matt. Watermarks indirectly says that you 'own' that image. And gives publicity to the url.

so,if u are using watermark on the image, people still can copy the photo right?but they cannot edit what I had copyrighted for example my name on the corner of my photo, right?

they can still edit it, but it'll be awkward to see multiple watermarks on the image. so they will normally leave it as it is. take a look a what shutterstock do to their images (you can search it if you have time). they put their watermark on the images so people would have to buy it to use it properly.

I agree to Jay. Putting watermark is the only thing we could do without assurance though of not being stolen, but at least.
In my photos, I usually edit it in picnik.com (which is actually closing their own site and moves to google+ come April 19). It is free online editing tool which functions similar to that of photoshop and other.
Just to give you an example, try viewing my photos on two blog sites. Just to give you an idea. And visit picnik.com while they are still open and free.
Hope that helps.

Write your name or your url in a certain place on your picture. Like that nobody will copy it!
