I am no expert here, but I believe those markings on your photos are a "watermark" signifying that these images are "owned" by PCGS and may be copywritten.  You may be getting into a problem by posting and/or trying to alter them.

I agree that this worries many people. This came from the PCGS Wesite:

What are the Terms of Use and who ‘owns' the image of the coin?

Note that PCGS retains the image rights to the coin and may use the imagery as we see fit. That said, you are free to use the TrueView images however you like. This may include online sales or Set Registry listings, personal photo albums, or the creation of wall art or other décor that feature your coins.

Images are owned by the Photographer. 

The best policy is to reach out to that photog asking for permission to use.

Most people will allow you to use their images, just don't take it for granted.
