In this paper generic image watermarking technique is used for the copyright protection of color images. Watermarking with monochrome and translucent images based on One-to-One compound mapping of the values of the image pixels, which provide us the recovered image without any loss. Both the translucent full color and Opaque monochrome images are used in this paper. Two-fold monotonically increasing compound mapping is used to get more typical visible watermarks in the image. Measures have been taken to protect it from hackers.
