Adding Watermarks to Galleries.

Post by Dal »

Is it possible to setup the templates to put a watermark over every image uploaded into the gallery, as currently the only way I can do it is by putting a water mark on each individual image prior to uploading.

Thanks Darren.

No, there's no code to do this at the moment, you'd have to contact a developer to write something to do that.

Please post system information from "Extensions >> System Information" (there is a bbcode option) on all posts asking for assistance.

Hi,

haven't tried it, but you might be able to use something like that:

Try to create an UDT and integrate it into your gallery template. However, on a very busy server, this may cause performance problems.

There are a lot of similar scripts out there:

But: Why not do it prior to uploading?
Have you considered using a software like ImageTasks (Freeware!)? You can batch edit hundreds of pictures at once.

Or use

(German only, but easy to comprehend)

Or you could write a script for PhotoShop (don't know whcih software you are using).


hth,

I recently did this with css using the lyteshow template in my album. Just need to create your watermark image as a png with transparency (if applicable) then apply it as a background image in the imagecontainer of the styles.

Not sure about the other album templates and it's not actually watermarking them, just laying it over the photos.

Here is the css I'm using:

Code: Select all

#lbImageContainer>#lbHoverNav { left: 0; background:url(uploads/images/watermark.png) right bottom no-repeat}
I added the:

Code: Select all

background:url(uploads/images/watermark.png) right bottom no-repeat
Again, this is an example using the lyteshow template.
