PC Winsoft seems to be the new label name for AlgoLogic as a software developer.
Apparently it is from Brazil.
When tried in the past, the software proved to be inferior or simply unable to function.
In Giveaway of the Day, always check the name of the software developer before you decide to download and install anything.

when I try to download, just get the error message: "Oooops!
Sorry, the page you're looking for isn't here.
Maybe you've clicked on an obsolete link or mistyped the URL, or maybe it's just us."

Unfortunately this software will not work on WIN XP as it requires .NET Framework version 4.5 and this version is not supported by WIN XP.
What a pity !
On the developer web site you can see that it is required .NET Framework version 4.0 but during installation the installer asks for .NET Framework 4.5.
........disappointing

Hmm..... Looks like great and useful software but I wonder for what period is this license granted to GOTD users. Below you can see extract from license agrement which you must accept before installation. As for me sounds a beat disappointing.
1. Grant of License for Registered Users; Payment of License Fee.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this License Agreement, PCWinSoft Systems Informatica Ltda (the "Company"), grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license, effective only during the trial period set forth on the Company's web site (the "Trial Period"), ........ETC.... After expiration of the Trial Period, the license granted hereunder will immediately terminate, unless the term is extended pursuant to Section 1(b) below.
(b) Upon expiration of the Trial Period, if you elect to continue use of the Software in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, you may pay to the Company the applicable license fee (the "Fee") set forth on the Company's web site. Upon complete payment by you, and receipt and acceptance by the Company, of the applicable Fee, the license granted hereunder shall continue for the term set forth in Section 10 below.
!! NOTHING ABOUT GOTD LICENSE IN SECTION 10 !!

I dunno -- with programmes like In-Paint (and many others like it) -- is it even WORTH trying to "watermark" your photos?
To do anything remotely effective, you'd have to pretty well COVER your photo with watermarks -- rendering it not only useless, but also so "ugly" it is no longer even interesting to display.
There are really only two alternatives -- either to COMPRESS a picture so heavily that it is extremely pixelated (as a way to establish that you do have a better version -- for a fee) -- or simply NOT to put your photos on the Internet, in the first place. Which is what I do.
It's sad, because you never get any compliments -- but you also can be sure that no advertising company on the other side of the world has "swiped" your photo -- and is using it, unpaid and uncredited, for a big advertising campaign.
Many amateur photographers would be only to happy to boast about such a thing (if they ever discovered it), but as a professional who has been "ripped off" quite enough, thank you, I'm not going to provide any of mine for free use.
Send them to a photo agency? Ha -- they (some of them, anyway) are even worse. They'll just send them for publication where they suppose you'll never see them, and if you ever DO -- they'll settle out of court! (That's what one photo agent told me, years ago -- and later, I discovered that is precisely what THEY were doing themselves -- with MY photos too!)
Unless things have changed for the better in the past few years (and I suspect, with DIGITAL photos, they have in fact changed for the WORSE) you'll only end up making peanuts -- with an occasional sprat thrown out to catch a mackerel.
About all this programme may be useful for, IMHO, is just for showing your name. If the pic is any good, and someone wants it -- it'll be "Gone in 60 Seconds".....

Tranmontane,
I don't know if you have heard of this alternative.
The only real solution to track images I have seen is to use a product called Digimarc for images. It embeds a signal to the image that is not perceptible to the eye, but can be decoded with software. The product is a Photoshop plugin. They also have a SmartPhone app that can detect the information it carries. One of the examples they had on their website for a while showed an image on a bustop and a person using the Smartphone app to show that it still contained the hidden watermark. That was around the time that national news reported an incident where an image a woman had posted on Facebook had been used illegally for a large advertisement.
There is a Tineye browser plugin that can find duplicates of images on the web, and Google also has a similar browser plugin. Great for a quick single image search but too time consuming for a large photographic list. Digimarc solves this by also compiling images from all websites, and if your image is found on a website that you have not registered, you get a report from Digimarc. The product is $99/year, which makes it usable by professionals that have a high investment and make a large sum from their photographic sales.
I hope programs such as today's GOTD offering will work towards producing a similar capability but at a more reasonable price.
There has been some developments that can accomplish a similar solution, but not commercially available as yet that I know of.
Steganography is another technology that I would like to see implemented on programs that GOTD offers. I have successfully used this to mark images that are not detectable visually, but was able to prove a picture framer was stealing images their customers brought in and was reselling them.
The most important point you made is that no matter the level or sophistication that can be implemented, if you can't catch the thief, there is little incentive for the thief to resist. Without something like Digimarc, you are almost guaranteed to do your own detective work, and that is very time consuming.
We need help GOTD developers.

Gary, Very interesting! I never knew of this... but even so I wonder how long it will be before "someone" finds a way to defeat it... It seems almost inevitable, really.
I am sorry I didn't see this till now, five days later, but anyway, I will certainly look into it.
Thanks!
