Image Watermark is not automatically applied

easyfroob - September 3, 2008 - 22:49

Hello,

I am working on my new drupal site, and had a few bumps in the road with image watermarking.

I can get the images to watermark themselves if I upload the picture first, THEN go to the picture, edit, and apply watermark.

I cannot get drupal to automatically watermark my uploads during upload.

I have checked the website AND browser cache, reset both and checked again, no difference.

My settings:

I am using GD2 in my image toolkit.
My image watermark settings are in this JPG: http://stfuplease.com/watersettings.jpg (image is optimized for web)
My actual watermark (copied from its home dir to root) http://stfuplease.com/water2.png

My folder permissions are:
/sites/default/files is 777
/sites/default/files/images is 777
/sites/default/files/images/temp is 777

Drupal 6.4
Image 6.x-1.0-alpha3
Image watermark 6.x-1.x-dev (2008-Jun-23)

Those are my versions.

Does anyone have any advice? Do I need to chmod some temp directory i missed?

Thanks ahead of time.

Did anyone find a solution to this?
I also had to upload the image first, and THEN apply the watermark to the uploaded image.

Keep me posted
Thanks

Yea that Image watermark module did not work for me too.

I think there's another module that does that.

Thanks that's great!
But how would I apply that preset to an uploaded image?

Imagecache allows you to

Imagecache allows you to Flush the preset images. Thats the good thing about it =)

So all you have to do is flush all the images, set the watermarks then recreate those images.

I'm not sure if this thread

I'm not sure if this thread is still active, but...

Could you expand on what you mean by "flush all the images, set the watermarks then recreate those images."

On the ImageCache admin page, I've created my watermark preset. I've "flushed" it (using the provided link), but the current images and newly uploaded images do not have the watermark on them. Am I doing something wrong?
