Process

- type it in word
- save as a pdf file
- open photoshop
- drag the pdf file in photoshop
- pages will open one by one
- go to window tab in photoshop and then open layers (if it has a tick mark before hand that mean its already open and you can find it at the right hand side
- create few layers and right your name in it
- make sure your the name layers are below your chapter
- decrease the opacity of name layers simply dragging the cursor over the 100% thing which you can see at the right hand side corner on the layer tab. (20%) is good enough.
- repeat the same with all the pages.
- save individual pages in jpeg format
- create an id in any photo uploading site (i do it in http://imageshack.us/)
- after it is uploaded open the file and simply copy the url which has got
- you will be done.

Okay, so since we were talking about how to upload watermarked images, I thought of giving an amateur tutorial. I don't really know how photoshop works (I have no idea about Photoshop, so this is for photoshop handicaps like me😆), so this one goes with MS Word. It is kind of tedious, but in the end, I do believe that it will shoo away at least some of the potential threats lurking in here. I hope it helps. So here it goes -

1.
This is the snapshot where you type in your text. I have lifted the Hound of Baskervilles text from Wikipedia. There is the option of putting watermarks from the 'Page Layout' tab. Choose the option and the following opens -

2.
Customise the watermark according to your preferences. I lifted the text from Wikipedia, hence the watermark.

3. The result is this -





4. For better image quality, choose that size of the page that fits your computer screen size best. Since I use a ten-inch netbook, the statement size page suited me best. It goes like this -



5. When you have adjusted the text to your screen effectively, press the print-screen button on your keyboard. It's usually placed in the function key row in most laptops (it is in the top row in mind, I don't really know about the others.) It is shortened to as PrntScr.

6. Once you have pressed the this button, open Paint and then Press Ctrl+V, i.e., paste the image in there.

7. Use the crop tool to remove the unwanted parts that you see. After doing that, the outcome is this -



8. LAST - Upload this to a photo sharing website. I use Imageshack for this purpose. Pick the URL from there and use the images as your updates.

I know this wasn't very good, but I hope this helped. 😃

Some of the replies have been really useful. Yes, the idea to add watermarks to the work is actually amazing - However, there is a small problem.

I have a friend who actually has an app on her phone, which removes watermarks. What is to say other people won't have the same app ?

You know I wasn't really aware about this application. Now maybe some potential plagiarizers got an idea of using this application.😆

Are you like sure that this application can remove watermarks from images? It seems impossible to me, but then who's say anything about what technology can do! 😆

I know, I was pretty shocked when I saw the proof thing too!
But yeah, it exists. Sad, but true 😆

People around me are usually out with their chappals if I tell a joke. 😆 But then, I do agree they are pretty pathetic. 😆
