Thanks for the notice. Left comments at the deletion discussion. Would appreciate advice about fair use question there if you have a minute. — Rhododendrites ^talk |  16:58, 3 April 2015 (UTC)

I've looked at this, and I'd say there may well be an issue (on enwiki at least) under NFCC #8 - unless the artwork is explicitly mentioned in the article, then it is unlikely to meet it. I'm not the greatest expert though, so it may be best to ask over at en:Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. --Mdann52talk to me! 16:37, 4 April 2015 (UTC)

Watermark removal

My understanding is that the best way to remove it is digitally—it's in some layer (in which case you would need the original Photoshop (or whatever) file).

It's often designed to be resistant to efforts to crop it out. I once tried to do that with a watermarked image in Photoshop and the watermark kept showing up. However ... at that time I still had Microsoft PhotoDraw (an excellent program that might have become something had MS decided not to put it on infinite hiatus back in 2000), and was able to eliminate the watermark with it through cropping. Perhaps using some less common image editor might work if that happens. Daniel Case (talk) 06:43, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
