Hi there,
I �ve been having problems with copyrighted images I use in my worksheets because I have no idea how to spot them. I have a powerpoint with similar cartoons I used in a worksheet that got removed. But I �ll probably won �t be able to share it because of the same problem.
I �d be grateful for any suggestion on how to avoid these.
Thanks!

  Watermarks are sometimes pretty light and you have to look close to spot them.

Watermarked clipart can contain letters, swirls, cross hatching, and so on. Some examples:
  
Best wishes and good luck! kwsp
