They keep all metadata in the originals and are working on a way to keep the metadata in small, display photos and still have them load quickly. If Orphan Works passes, and it looks like it will, all unidentified photos will be orphans and free for anybody to take and use any way they want. There are scripts that allow you to right-protect your photos on your own website, but I'd rather leave that up to SmugMug and spend my time on the photos. I know there are ways around these protections but most photo grabbers only take those that are easy to take. If you can prove that someone has removed watermarks or metadata from your photos in order to steal them, it's a criminal offense. Tina Tina Manley www.tinamanley.com
