Watermarking

Hello,

I've just today downloaded and installed Admiror - and wow it's good! many thanks for this plugin! :D

I would love to see the ability for the plugin to automatically watermark all the images when they are viewed larger with my chosen watermark - either via a text input box or an image selector (or both) and a ###% Transparent setting so I can chose how strong the watermark shows through on the images.

Many thanks again, Admiror is brilliant! oh, and my site is still being created, but if you wish to see it in action then please visit http://www.byfordphotos.co.uk/

We had some more requests for this feature. Implementing of it isn't small job. Watermarking has sence only if watermark is flatten on original image, or else anyone can list loaded images and took originals without watermark.
Maybe we can load originals in cache, flatten some watermark on them and provide images from cache directly.

That was sort of my thought - take the image to be brought up large in the pop-up and apply an "overlay" of some sort.

However having now looked closely at my own site as it is each thumbnail does actually point at the original, full-sized, image and therefore, as you say, anyone can just click "save link as..." to save the full-sized image minus the watermark.

An interesting one this! Maybe it could be done as a totally separate plugin for joomla by some clever soul..!!? :)

Thank you for your quick answer.
