I am using drupal 6 and I wish to add text watermark,which is their user name, to all user's profile photo, and display them in a slide show. The original profile photo uploaded by the user will remains the same.

However, I was stuck in the watermark part. I found the Image watermark module, but it is for drupal 5 only. I know that by using GD library, text watermark can be added. But I just can't get the result as I want.

Any idea on how to do it? Thanks in advance.

Well, I found a module, views rotator which can display image in a slide show. You must have a view module, install views rotator, then add a new view. In style, choose views rotator. In the setting, you can choose Time between displaying items, Pause rotation when the mouse is over the area, and other setting.

It is very useful and it solves all my problem in one goal! I can now showing the user's profile picture, by applying filter to users who have uploaded their picture, and show the user's name while making them in a slide show.

I display the water mark as fields. I want profile picture+ watermark (user name). So I add two display field, one is User:Name, one is User:Picture. I use css to adjust the position and color of user name, to make them looks like printed on the image.

Well, I know this is not watermark at all, and I had to use this while searching for the suitable watermark solution.

I usually use VidLogo to add watermark to image.

hi i cam across this doing my own research and i have exactly the same idea - to put a custom field text watermark added to a picture when uploaded under that content type. i have not found any solution. I can use css bbut what i am trying to do is create something that will have the copywrite attached to the photo if it is downloaded. css leaves the images intact. did you find any solution?

The ImageCache_Actions module does this for Drupal 6/7.
