    A number of sellers watermark photos (ie. put some text in one corner).

    When selling, I add a note that the photo is of the actual item.

    I think if you just put your name right next to the item on a paper then that prevents anyone else from stealing the photo. It's what is required on trading forums and works well.

    That would be rather too easy to remove!

    If you have the knowledge/time to do this then you would probably be capable of taking your own decent picture.

    True - I would like to state that I do not sell on Ebay (do not trust Paypal!) but have removed things from photos before for other purposes - I rather enjoy using photoshop!
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare
