Watermarks

Several days ago, I reported this image for having a watermark in the lower left corner. Actually, I reported it at least twice since then, yet it won 1st place for the day and is still in the running for #5 for the week. It's a great image, worthy of awards, but must be removed due to the watermark. If I am wrong about this, please let me know. I don't ever want to seem malicious. I just feel strongly that the watermark issue must be consistently enforced or we need to do away with it.

Images with watermarks used to be removed almost immediately when reported. Had that happened, this photographer would have had the opportunity to resubmit this image without a watermark in plenty of time to still get awards this week. Now, it will likely be next week. That's not a huge problem, but I'm sure he will be disappointed that this wasn't corrected immediately as in the past. It's less painful to have an image deleted with a 500 image score than a 607 with a lost #1 of the day award. He has many great images in his portfolio that don't have watermarks, so I'm sure he just made an error this time.

I have reported others with watermarks this week, but don't remember most of those. I hope they were resolved swiftly.
