No support by the author.

yeah, so I forgot that I updated this until I just came across it. So here she is updated and confirmed working on 3.7.x- 3.8.x

What does it do:
-Adds a watermark to all images uploaded to user albums and optionally profile pictures.

Features:
-Option to watermark album images
-Option to watermark profile pictures
-Can set whether to watermark thumbnails or just full size images.
-Can position watermark in 1 of 4 corners.
-watermark image gets resized when it is larger then the image to be watermarked
-Completely changed functionality so that it now adds the watermark at runtime and makes no more permanent changes to images.

Notes:
- If after you first install you do not notice a difference then clear your browser cache.
- It works with all 3 storage types for album images, but will not watermark thumbnails if you have the storage type set to 'Keep pictures in file system, but allow direct access to thumbnails'
- It only works for profile pictures that are stored in the database. I will attempt to see if I can create a workaround for this when I get a chance.
- If you want to watermark attachments there already exists 2 modifications that I have tested first hand and know work on the latest version of VB.
- This has been tested and confirmed working in VB 3.7.x as well.
- Again please clear your browser cache and test before you report problems to me.

Installation Instructions:
1. Create or Use the watermark.png I attached, and upload it to your forum root before anything. You will receive 'file does not exist' or no images will display(depending on the browser) if you do not first upload an image named 'watermark.png' to your forum root( The folder you have vbulletin installed in).
2. Import the 'product-pb_watermarkalbumimages.xml' file through the product manager.
3. Go to AdminCP->Vbulletin Options->Vbulletin Options->PB Watermark Settings and configure the settings.

Screenshots have been attached.

No problem. Sorry for putting you on the grill here. Do you have any plans to make an option to watermark attachments aswell as album images? That would be great.

I just tried donating btw but it said you're currently unavailable to accept donations.

RLShare, this works flawlessly on albums but nothing appears on profile pictures? I have enabled to watermark profile pictures but I don't see anything on none of my user's profiles.

lol.. No problem man, its my mod I expect questions about it. I have actually looked into watermarking attachements in the past when I first created this. I do eventually plan on adding that ability in. Its just right now I am really busy with some other things, when I get a spare few minutes I will attempt to add it as well as fix what Megatron just brought to my attention. Oh and I fixed the paypal link..lol

Ok and to note, as I mentioned to Megatron in a pm, I just noticed that when profile pictures are stored in the filesystem then it will not watermark the image. The problem comes from the fact that VB serves up a direct link to the images on the server when they are stored in the filesystem and are not processed first like album images are. I will make a note of it above in the original post and see if I can work up a fix when I get a free minute or two.

If you do not mind me making these suggestions for new features:

- I was wondering maybe an add option where we can also CENTRE the watermark on the pictures?
- An option to allow the user to choose whether his/her profile & album pictures can be watermarked?
- And, an option in the AdminCP to prevent an album picture from being watermarked that's been configured to be used as the user's backround otherwise you see Watermark logo scattered all over the page and it looks messy.

Do you expect the ability to watermark attachments will be added in the next month or so? I have some high profile events coming up that I wish to gain as much exposure for the site I co-own as possible

I've donated, i'm sorry it's such a small amount but i'm very greatfull of your support and for creating such a great product.

I'm not sure if this is doable, but is it possible to watermark over images that are externally sourced?

-Centre watermark would be awesome.
-Option to allow users to choose (i'm guessing by bitfield) is a cool feature, i'd use it - would be cool to be usergroup defineable.
-I've just noticed a user is using an album picture for his signature, doesn't look too nice with a watermark slapped on. Is there anything that can be done?

Good suggesting Megatr0n!

It would be nice to have the option to only display the watermark on images that are being displayed on other websites. It would keep the host website looking clean and would still work to drive traffic from other sites that hotlink the images.
