Watermark Thumbnails

[ghinton]

Is there a way to watermark thumbnails so that their physical location is hidden from users? I don't want to enable the anti-leeching script since I want the users to be able to download the photos, but if you right click on a thumbnail, go to properties, it will show you the full path of the image (such as http://www.yoursite.com/photopost/da...thumbs/11.jpg). Then all you have to do is remove the /thumbs from the URL, and bingo, you have the full sized image.
The reason I ask is because I am running a pay site, and with out anti-leech enabled, users can get to the full sized images for free. With watermarking the thumbs as well (even if I use a blank watermark image), it would prevent them from seeing the full URL of the image.

Well you might want to post a mod request for someone to help you if they have time to assist.

It is possible to do this and I would assist if it was something simple as in one or two lines I could post here but something like this would require modification to the watermark.php script as well as several other key scripts and would require a decent amount of time to do.

I understand. I will add it to the suggestion forum since I do believe it is in the best interest to protect the paths to these image, and am sure others would like to hide all of the options as well.

Is there a way to just move the location of the thumbnail folders so they are not in the same place as the original images?

You can not move thumbnails but you can move medium and large images in Storage Options and place large and mediums below your webroot so people can not access them.
