Hi Stramm, many TNX for all your helps!
Unfortunately I have some problems and new questions for you:
yesterday I've used watermarking feature and the intermediate image for the first time. I've changed value of PNG trasparency in admin tool (0 - 100) without some appreciable variation. The watermark.png image is always opaque in all new uploaded file. My server use GD 2.x
The last question is watermark not disactivable problem, EXIF data read problem and non-requested files compression:
After I've activated "watermark" and "create intermediate image" @ 800x600 pixels, my gallery doesn't read more the EXIF data from all new image uploaded, even if the "Read EXIF data in jpg" function is set @ "Yes".
At the same time, in all new original image files uploaded, cpg introduced a not requested compression @ 50% or more.
For example the original file size of xxx.jpg of the user yyy before post= 221,9 KBytes @ 1000x750 pixels. After post,in http://...gallery/albums/userpics/yyy/... the size of the same file is: xxx.jpg = 94Kbytes @ 1000x750 pixels, normal_xxx.jpg = 55,4 Kbytes @ 800x600 pixels.
what happened?
When my users has reported this problems I've immediately set @ "NO" "Create a intermediate image" and "watermark" from admin panel, but I cannot disabled watermark anyway. Finally I've had renamed the watermark.png file in NOwatermark.png in order to stop the process. Finally I've stopped it but The EXIF data still not be read and all new uploaded image file are being compressed anyway!!
Can you help me please?
Other question:
I've a new idea for improve my small custom modifications (see at the top of this page 27) and/or your pic_poster plugin.
The real question is:
Is it possible to add, near uploader name, the user on/offline status, using a part of the function "Who is online" included in your very great modpack ?
I think that my suggestion can be a very useful feature.
See two attacched example pics. (in order: pic title, uploader name, status on/off, PM) see also comments box in "cmnts_box" pic attacched
