Watermarks.

mholtum · January 21st, 2005, 12:09 PM

I have all my paths correct, and it worked I thought until I changed my image.

Here is my path to the watermark.png file:

/home/mholtum/public_html/gallery/watermark/watermark.png

should work. What am I missing?

I chmod'd the watermark forlder 777

just put them under /images , where all the other little icons go, and see if that works...

I got it to work. Seems if you upload an image, delete it and reupload it, you must change the name of the file. Works like a charm

There's no reason you would have to change the name. Images are removed from the server, and even if they weren't, the upload process would still overwrite the old image. My guess would be that you're pulling the old images from cache.

That is what I thought as well. But it works.. So I am happy.

Ok, so I've got watermark.png in my /images folder, and I have tried every path imaginable in the watermark path folder....and I've still got nothing. Any ideas or is the server side GD program just not up to date?

You need to put the full, physical path to it, and that should do it. GD2 and IM both worked for me.

What do you have set for the path?

dboogie2288 · March 3rd, 2005, 11:01 AM

i also used
home/bbikers/beginnerbikers.org/gallery/images/watermark.png

Submit a support ticket... That's the easiest/fastest way to get it taken care of.

Patience is a virtue. They will get to it.

You need to save the file as a .png image with an image editor, not just change the extension.
