Yes, this is your blog and photos but the overlays on the photos are so freaking annoying! Why not just put a "© YourName" or something like that in the corner of the photos so as not to deface the otherwise good shots. Which is important to you: to convey your message through your photographs or advertise your outfit?

Dear Reader,

I agree with you that the text is really annoying, but we have to resort to this action because our photos are often copied without permission.

It is really very easy to remove the text if we put it on a corner.

I will discuss this with our photographers. Our photos are for sale, they are not free.

Mabuhay!
