Watermarking original work

Howdy,
I know this has been debated somewhere, but I wanted to hear from you: your thoughts and concerns about this insane freedom of sharing each others stuff...

Should I watermak all my folio works - (I'm really considering this) text above the photo/artwork/illustration), no bar on the bottom, just a pasted/action text over the image?
In a way, it's been bugging me for years the fact that this isn't the most professional way of presenting the images on a web/app based portfolio...

Tumblrs, pinteresters, bloggers, etc, reblog, repost, pin, bookmark, hotlink over and over and over more and more, without having in mind they should concern about the intelectual property... ok let's assume they forget to mention or don't have time for the original credited source or owner, but it's becoming insane how easy is to rip off and go along as if it's nothing special, by just assuming "they" found over the intornetz... really - you certainly have friends, parents, cousins who think that, I have. don't bullshit on me.

So. should I go and watermark my works (specially the most recent ones) even tho it doesn't look "that professional" in a folio?

Google webfonts

any good combinations or examples to suggest?
i.e.: headers and paragraphs . // serif + sans-serif

I'm having a hard-time to choose at least 2 typesets from all those examples.

Illustrator 4 color settings

so I have made a calibration on my macbook screen color...

I am working on a cmyk illustrator file and as I save a preview for web, my blacks come out pretty much equal, I have a stroke C100 M100 Y100 K100, and colors like 40 40 40 100 come out the same as I save them for web, even tho I can see a big difference between the two black while working on the file.

I have tried so many combinations like the color settings, assigning profiles, rich black / 100 Black (at preferences) but nothing seems to change my blacks (they come out with no difference) as I save that godamn fuckr to web...

can someone help me out sorting this?

Xmas present

I bought a big box of Lego for my son and I couldn't stop playing with it / him tonight, it was my dream present when I was a kid and I never had it. I think this was my present also, to see the joy and fun he had, wondering that's how I'd be if I received that.

I feel great and I needed to share.

Merry Xmas!
