How do you Remove old watermark and replace it with new?
« on: August 25, 2012, 07:51:42 pm »

My gallery has about 100K pictures that were uploaded before I knew how to do watermarks.

Now I figured out and want to redo all the larger images to have the watermark... I don't want to redo all the midsize and full size pictures until I am sure that I am doing the right thing.

I have uploaded a new png file, but it doesn't seem to do anything when in admin tools I do "update thumbnails and resized photos"

I have Gd2 as the image processor.

I just switched to it from imagemagick yesterday

Please help

the gallery is at http://www.portraitsofnewyork.com

thank you very much.

Your site does return a .js error when I opened it a few minutes ago in IE, although that might not be the immediate problem.

I am not very experienced with watermarking, but maybe trying / answering these will help for you and someone else who could suggest some solutions.

Did it work with the CPG watermark?
    - create a test album and try it

Do other update functions also fail?
    - Resizing, etc
    - create a test album and try it

Have you tried turning on Debug in Config and looked for error messages specific to this task?
    - some error messages are "normal"
    - please don't post your debug output here

do you still have all those "orig_" files there?
it'll make the things much easier if you do

victory, all fixed.

it seems that all I had to do is check that the watermark image name was indeed what was in the config file...

so sorry. I may want to redo my watermark, it's hideous, but it is not the software's fault.

I don't know what the js error is, I'll investigate. I never use IE...

thank you so very much for your help.
