The present invention relate generally to digital watermarking and data hiding. One claim recites a method including: obtaining a first color channel and a second color channel, the first color channel and the second color channel are components of a color image signal or color video signal; obtaining a digital watermark orientation pattern, the orientation pattern serving to facilitate detection of a watermark message; separating the digital watermark orientation pattern into first frequency components and second frequency components; utilizing a programmed electronic processor or electronic processing circuitry, transforming the first color channel by steganographically embedding the first frequency components therein; and utilizing a programmed electronic processor or electronic processing circuitry, transforming the second color channel by steganographically embedding the second frequency components therein. Of course, other combinations and claims are provided too.
