Watermark on the fly or permanent not working

rareclownfish · November 26th, 2006, 06:58 PM

Hey guys, I've searched and read all the other post but I can't get my watermark to work. I tried on the fly and permanent watermark and can't get any to work.
When I use on the fly I get a red x . I also tried to apply the watermark to one of my albums and it didn't work.

Here is what I have setup.
Enable on-the-fly image protection -> Yes
When using on-the-fly image generation, do you want to overlay the watermark image? -> Yes
Watermark Options:
Enable watermarking of photos with overlay image? -> No

Here is the png image.

Hello Chuck can you take a stab at this.
Thanks

Are you placing the full server path to the watermark image in watermark options not url. Also to use on the fly watermarking gd2 must be installed on your server , Is it?

Hello Chuck you still have admin rights to my site can you check it out for me.
The image page is set eg. /home/blabla/public_html/blabla/images/watermark2.png and my server has gd2 installed.

Thanks

It does not like your watermark try making another one

OK still the same png file?

Chuck S · November 29th, 2006, 05:02 PM

I dont know how your doing the file but whatever your creating it in the GD2 on your server crashes. Are you able to upload a png image to your server lets go that route see if it isnt an issue with your gd2 and png support

Hey Chuck I tried a new png file but get the same results, I had to use the forum dir. because it kept saying access not granted for the gallery folder.
I guess my pics aren't good enough. Do you have one I could try?

Chuck S · November 29th, 2006, 05:08 PM

well if its an access problem place the watermark in your gallery data directory as you know itsd 777

rareclownfish · November 29th, 2006, 05:09 PM

I tried uploading it via photopost it said the image was too small.

rareclownfish · November 29th, 2006, 05:12 PM

I just tried the 777 and I still get the red X.

Chuck S · November 29th, 2006, 05:18 PM

Try another png image bigger lets see if you can upload a png. If you cant upload a png your gd2 png support is not working right

rareclownfish · November 29th, 2006, 05:20 PM

Ok I'll try that asap.

rareclownfish · November 29th, 2006, 05:30 PM

OK I got it to work with a larger image, the other question is I'm trying to re-possition the watermark and it's stuck in the center. What file do I need to edit to get this to work?
Thanks

that looks like to me your positioning it lower right corner

rareclownfish · November 29th, 2006, 05:57 PM

I tried to change it, but nothing happens. Right now its set for center.

Chuck S · November 29th, 2006, 06:05 PM

I just tried that Chuck but I got red x's on all the pics. When I copy and paste the code it was all funny looking in the file.

Chuck S · November 30th, 2006, 07:45 AM

I think your copying and pasting incorrect the code is how it is suppose to be. I told Michael about this one again so maybe it is in the download I have not checked but redownload and see.
