PB Watermark Album images

[RLShare]

There is a new version of this modification available Here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=214798) that has been confirmed to work in version 3.7.x

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This mod is in beta, it was inspired by this thread yesterday.
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=178296

I'm hoping that posting this beta version in here will help me gather useful feedback on what kind of features might be useful in such a hack.

What does it do:
-Adds a watermark to the bottom right of all images uploaded to users albums.

Planned changes:
1. Allow the url of the watermark image to be changed via admincp
2. Allow location of where the watermark image is placed to be changed via admincp

Installation Instructions:
1. Create or Use the watermark.png I attached, and upload it to your forum root before anything.

2. Edit the file forum_root/includes/functions_album.php and add these functions. I added them right below the Vbulletin Copyright notice.

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//////////// -ALBUM WATERMARK MOD - image createfrom/saveto file functions-////////////
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
function imagecreatefromfile($path)
{

);
if(!$functions[$info[2]])
{
return false;
}

if(!function_exists($functions[$info[2]]))
{
return false;
}

return $functions[$info[2]]($path);
}


function imagesavetofile($image,$path)
{
$info = @getimagesize($path);

if(!$info)
{
return false;
}
$functions = array(
IMAGETYPE_GIF => 'imagegif',
IMAGETYPE_JPEG => 'imagejpeg',

IMAGETYPE_WBMP => 'imagewbmp',
IMAGETYPE_XBM => 'imagewxbm',
);
if(!$functions[$info[2]])
{
return false;
}

if(!function_exists($functions[$info[2]]))
{

}

return $functions[$info[2]]($image,$path);
}

Thanks :)

Yay thank u so much for this hack.
I will install it now

[xxalexkimxx]

Where do i go to set:
1. Allow the url of the watermark image to be changed via admincp
2. Allow location of where the watermark image is placed to be changed via admincp

I haven't implemented that yet, Thats why its listed under planned changes. I will be implementing it soon. I put that up there so people know the changes that I already plan to make and so they do not suggest changes that are in the works.


Right now you will have to create a 'watermark.png' and upload it to the forum root directory. And it will always show up on the bottom right.

[xxalexkimxx]

oh ok let me do that now
thanks

i got this message came up when upload image

Ive updated the original post to reflect the changes that should fix your problems, thank you for letting me know. You will need to add one more function to the file and re-upload the new plug-in I just attached.

[RLShare]

Did you add the function 'imagesavetofile' I posted below the other function to the functions_album.php file?

I just noticed that its easy to look over, the section of my post that contains the code to be pasted to the other file now has 2 functions in it so you will need to delete what you pasted into the file before and copy whats up there now into its place.

Tried. Doesnt Work.

Perhaps, rather than use this as a beta area for developing a mod, you should get everything working ok, get it tested, do some instructions.
Looks promising. :)

[lazytown]

Looking forward to this when it's completed. It would be nice if it could watermark existing album images.

[waza]

It's nice, but have a look at class_image.php and class_upload.php in the includes folder. You could probably integrate it better into the vbulletin system with modifying these classes.

'Tried doesn't work' DOESN'T help me. A more detailed explanation of what happened would. I doubt you even tried with a reply like that. And what exactly do you think it means to be a Beta? That means I want it tested. Maybe you should learn a thing about the terminology of this before you start telling me what to do.

lol. See a simple thing like this and I overlooked it. Thats why I posted it, thanks for pointing it out. Will fix later tonite or tommorow.

[Catmag]

Works well. Haven't tried to upload multiple images yet.

Any way to increase the size of the watermark?

[RLShare]

Updated so that it now works when uploading multiple images....Delete the old plugin and import the new one.


Works well. Haven't tried to upload multiple images yet.

Any way to increase the size of the watermark?
You can use a larger watermark.png image. It places the watermark image in the bottom right corner based on the dimensions of the watermark.png so it will work with any size image.

[Alfa1]

The problem with watermarks is that they normally are a fixed size. This means that a large pic will get a relatively tiny watermark and a small pic may get butchered by a watermark.

Please make the size of the watermark relative to the size of the picture.

[RaMMz]

Thanks, it works perfect.

You should upload watermark.png to the forum root directory, edit that simple .php and it works fine & upload the plugin.

RaMMz @ BlackTouch NETWORK.-

[TimberFloorAu]

Is this backwards compatible.

In essence, does it watermark all existing uploaded images, or only new ones?

Only new ones.

[Mr.samy]

After i install it .... and try to upload animated photo ... i see the plugins put the watermark on it but the photo become not animated and stop from work

[balance12]

I upgrade it, and work grate with massive uploads, but it shows me different Size of watermark.. you upload an albun it shows you great, the other shows it shorter.. then good.....

One good one smaller....

What could it be?

[xxalexkimxx]

I Upload img type gif , JPEG

It show msg

change the all image type to LOWER CASE

[RLShare]

After i install it .... and try to upload animated photo ... i see the plugins put the watermark on it but the photo become not animated and stop from work
Im working with the GD imaging library for PHP and it does not support animated GIFS. I might look into adding support for animated GIFs myself in the future but that will not be until after I work on getting the other features I want done.

The only reason I could think of is that Your uploading images that are larger then the max size, VB will automatically resize images that are larger then the Max size and my code applies watermarks to the images that get uploaded before VB processes them. So Im guessing that my code is adding the watermark, then VB is shrinking the image after making it look like the watermark is of a different size.

You either messed up putting the functions in the functions_album.php file or you did not put the functions in that file.

Thats a great help, thanks. I know I'm stupid, but I do know how to copy & paste into a file that you actually name!

The only problem I had was where to put it as you said right after the vBulletin copyright notice. Well, I found one, right at the top of the file - I assume that's where you meant it to go :confused: :rolleyes:

This is an image someone posted earlier in this thread.. It shows how the top of the file functions_album.php should look after you paste the functions in.

The top part is the copyright notice I mentioned pasting the code in after.

[ErnieTheMilk]

That's where I originally posted it... and it didn't work

However, I have to say after perserverance, and popping it in different places, I managed to get it to work! The code did go further down the page tho!

Now if you could just sort out the watermark scale issue on differing sized photos :D

[Megatr0n]

Can you please tell me how we can enable this main profile pictures?

[goranbaxy]

[Megatr0n]

Still looking for a response...

[Leo Brazil]

Installed after making my self a custom watermark.png

Does exactly was supposed too.

Keep the rocks rolling dude. :up:

[Mr. Hoddz]

Can't see that it works dude. But if you could share the watermark.php file and give instructions on how to install it that would be good =]

[Leo Brazil]

Mr. Hoddz

watermark is in fact a image, a png file and you can see a sample on the first post on screen shoots section.

To install this mod you will need to edit your functions_album.php that is on includes folder as described, up load this edited file to your ftp and after that install the plug in https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=82789&d=1214140995 that's in the first post.
Just a tip, this must me installed as a plug in not as a product.

I made my self a png file using photoshop, that in fact it's just my site name in a clear background. I used the same resulotion of the watermark sample here to see how it goes and it was good enough. This watermake.png must be up-loaded to your forum root.
That's just what I did, 5 minutes and work great.

Last thing. This will just work on your albums not in regular images or files you place in your forums. If you already has users with tons of pictures the watermark will be added just in photos up-load after you install this mod, there won't be any effect on old images.

[DieselMinded]

i wonder if vBulletin is planing on implementing this ? i hate php edits come upgrade time , I would like all the images on my site to be water marked but only after they are downloaded

[blogcrash]

Works like a charm.

Thanks. This is a great mod

[zigojacko]

When will the below be implemented?

Planned changes:
1. Allow the url of the watermark image to be changed via admincp
2. Allow location of where the watermark image is placed to be changed via admincp

[zigojacko]

I have followed all the steps accurately and a watermark is not being placed on my uploaded album images :(

[7lanet]

Is it possible to print the watermark in center of the pic

[zigojacko]

I have got this working now. Great mod. Many thanks. :)

[Megatr0n]

Is this mod going to be updated or not?

[Jase2]

Suggestion: Have an option for users when uploading to watermark the image. If not selected, no watermark image is used. :D

[rolloffhill]

Looking forward to this when it's completed. It would be nice if it could watermark existing album images.

-vissa

Yes this would be a useful addition...

[RLShare]

The hack is going to get a complete overhaul. As it stands its just a simple hack I threw together in an hour. After reading through alot of the suggestions I realize that it needs to be completely rewritten to achieve alot of the features that should exist is such a hack. As I am tied up with alot of work lately it might take me a week or two to release a new version with new features and administration options..

[psylenced]

Having it create it on the fly i think is the best option. It means it works on existing albums, plus whenever you change the watermark in the admin all pictures are automatically updated.

[RLShare]

^thats exactly what I'll be doing, hence it will be re-written completely

[karlm]

^thats exactly what I'll be doing, hence it will be re-written completelyExcellent. With the quotes in mind, I eagerly look forward to a rewritten release. Great job.

[psylenced]

Fantastic :)

[Megatr0n]

RLShare, would it be possible for the watermark to be REMOVED from a picture when the user is selecting it to be a backround picture? Many of my users don't like the watermarking showing on their profiles.

Plus, I also think a user should be given the option whether he/she wants to have their pictures watermarked because some do their own. However, still with a seperate option to watermark all pictures in one go?

[rolloffhill]

I had to remove this plugin after upgrading to vb 3.7.2 pl1. It kept the images from loading to the server. Just an fyi..

[flussmitteldj]

I need help!

Fatal error: Call to undefined function can_view_private_albums() in /www/htdocs/w009f45a/includes/class_profileblock.php on line 875

[BatMs.com]

Hey RLShare nice mod... Installed exactly how you explained and works straight away... However I see you are re-making the mod... PLEASE oh please add the relative size watermark that has been suggested numerous times...

Suggestion For Re-Haul:
Allow of placing wm on images already created (done with the update counters...photopost have it....)

Is it possible to make the plugin somehow put the watermark on AFTER the image gets re-sized? As it is now it seems the WM gets placed befor the image gets re-sized...

Example of why (my watermark image is 150X30... on a 600X450 image that was originally taken off 5mp phone camera):
http://batms.com/forum-blog/picture.php?albumid=8&pictureid=44

[RLShare]

As I said before I am rewriting this mod, It will watermark the images dynamically. So it will do it at the time the images are shown instead of when they are uploadedd. It should solve alot of problems, so if your having troubles with this version please be patient as I work out some bugs I have in the next version.

As far as the new version, just a word on its progress, I am having a little bit of trouble with one aspect of it. I have it working for images that are stored locally. But if the images are set to be stored in the database instead of locally on the server I am having some trouble. When I try to take the data from the blob it is only streaming in half of the data for the image and I cannot figure out why. As soon as I get this figured out I will release.

Also with this new version it will take alot of edits to one of VB's files because VB is sending the image data for album images directly to the users browser without anywhere to intercept the data before hand.

[PGAmerica]

Works Perfectly. Thank you. However, it only works on pictures that are uploaded AFTER this is installed.

Any update on this, very interested.

Unfortuantely, I had to uninstall this awsome hack. It's off the mark in such an important area. I love the hack but it puts the watermark on profile images. >=( No one wants the name of my site tiled on the BG of their profile and on my forum, a LOT of people use that feature. Please, PLEASE, PLEASE fix that so I can reup this hack!!!

just to let all know, it works just as describe on 3.8

[joh]

I just uploaded 20 images all at once and they all got the watermark.

I have two questions that I hope someone can answer.

1: can this be made so it have one master watermark, but have it over ride per use album if they upload a logo at a set size?

2: Is there away to make the watermark X% of the image, this way if a small image is upload the watermark does not take it over?

Thank a lot
