Image problems

[camarosource]

I am just setting up PhotoPost Pro 7.02 for the first time and am having problems regarding images uploaded.

1. I upload a .jpg that is 1106 x 1450pixels however when I upload it, it is only uploading it to 458px × 600px. It says the original is 1106 x 1450pixels and there is a "Click on image to view larger image however the image itself is not clickable??

2. I set it so it's enabled for watermark but nothing worked.. the image is just the image and doesn't show the watermark anywhere..

well number one is easy your creating a medium image so under admin -> showphoto options the option to show the large image in a popup set that to yes

As far as number 2 it can be many things related to watermarks as in what type are you doing on the fly or permanent. Are you using full server path to the watermark image. Is the watermark a png image? Have you set watermarking permissions under admin -> edit categories for your categories on which groups get there images watermarked.

I have thumbnail problems still. (Photopost 7.02)

I use phpbb if that matters any.

I have all the categories set to the correct path to the watermark png file

Note: I won't be posting the correct path name below because this is a website not to be released yet and google is indexing this forum so I don't want the website being broadcast in searches before it's ready :-)


WATERMARK OPTIONS
Enable watermarking of photos with overlay image? YES
If enabled, position of overlay watermark on images. CENTER
Full server path to watermark overlay image. /home/camaro92/public_html/[PRIVATE]/global_images/cs_watermark.png

SHOW PHOTO OPTIONS
Enable on-the-fly image protection, This option uses the watermark.php script to serve images YES

When using on-the-fly image generation, do you want to overlay the watermark image?
You can use this feature for on-the-fly watermarks in combination with the on-the-fly image generation. NO <-- I have already tried YES



GLOBAL OPTIONS
With it set to IMAGEMAGICK

I upload a photo and get the following error :

My Photo Gallery Message
Error creating thumbnail! Error code: 127

Command:

"/usr/bin/X11/mogrify" +profile "*" -size 76x100 -quality 70 -geometry 76x100 -unsharp 10 '/home/camaro92/public_html/gallery/data/549/thumbs/1.jpg'


With it set to GD1

It UPLOADS but there is no watermark showing anytime.


With it set to GD2

I upload a photo and get the following error :

I spent 3 HOURS debugging this trying to avoid having to bug you but I'm just at a loss..

NOW, if it turns out the path to the either the GD1, 2 or ImageMagick is wrong, how do I find out what's the correct? Or do I have to contact my host?

Thanks

You can ask your host if imagemagick is installed

You can set your processor to GD2 and uploading images should work as GD2 is on most servers since it is part of all normal php installations.

as far as watermarks on the fly I would suspect your server path to the watermark is incorrect because if your using on the fly watermarks and the error you point tells me the file can not be found

Warning: getimagesize(/home/camaro92/public_html/[PRIVATE]/global_images/cs_watermark.png): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/camaro92/public_html/gallery/image-inc.php on line 177

wow! Sometimes you really know how to make a person feel like an idiot! :-) And that's a good thing.. Sometimes all it really takes is someone with a clear mind to point out the obvious.

I forgot to upload the watermark to the SERVER. I had a jpg version and upload it rather than the .png

I am having a problem again tho.. Likely something I missed.

It doesnt look the same as in photoshop when I overlay the image. Usually an overlay means it overlays over the image but has a transparency to it so the picture still shows THRU it.. But it appears it's just displaying overtop and hiding the original picture?

[camarosource]

got it! Needed to set to 24-bit

[Chuck S]

Yep your watermark has to be a transparency and those are saved in 24bit or higher.

Nice watermark by the way has a nice transparency.

[camarosource]

thank you very much. Not sure I should make it just a bit lighter or not.

[Chuck S]

well I would see how it looks with color images
