But removing watermarks could get you in lots of legal trouble.
The whole point of watermarks is normally to stop you using
a commercial image that you should be paying for. Make sure
you are not breaking copyright before you start.

However, you do say 'water marks' (with a space), which is a
different thing entirely and the GIMP could be used for that.

An understatement IMHO!
But that's more to do with scripting GIMP in general than
with the Python scripting implementation.
