How to enable watermarks

[Deviant++]

Can someone teach me how to setup the whole watermark thing..

teach? Just create a .png img that you want to use as a watermark. Enter the path said image and there you have it.

what about the dimensions, location, transparency etc
?

Dimensions = However big you want the watermark to be.
Transparency = A good thing.

still not clear about it lol


suppose you have the vb post reply button image as the watermark.. with transparent edges since its made that way in a gif..

now I've uploaded to a place..

what should the place be and how would I set it to show on any non thumbnail image on the site and hotlinked image..

ACP, Section vBa Gallery
Click Modify Settings, the scroll down to section Uploading Options.
Now enter the path (for exaple /var/www/youraccount/html/images/wmimage.gif) unter Watermark Images, select where you want the Watermark to Appear under Watermark Location and hit Save.
Then click Maintenance in the left frame, scroll down to Watermark Files and start watermarking existing images (if you want, otherwiese it will only affect new images).

once I set it to permanent, can the watermarks be removed later if I set it to no ?

No, they are part of the picture at that point.
