Description

Hi there,

I just noticed that if I use the watermark module, my images lose resolution after applying it. Is this normal?

Cheers, Simon.

I'm noticing this too, however the resolution of the picture doesn't change, just the level JPEG artifacts.

My Image Toolkit JPEG quality is set to 100% in Drupal.

The quality isn't terrible, but it's noticeably worse than an image without a watermark.

which graphics kit is being used ? gdlibrary or imagemagik ?

scratch that question, I see that the readme states to use the gdlibrary. That being said, this may be the reason.

VeryMisunderstood has said it already: Watermark uses gdlibrary. Also if I remember right I've set quality on processing to 100% so we can't do anything here. Plz reopen the issue if I'm wrong.
