Watermark on product picture

Hi DWs

Is it possible for the ecom to add watermark on product pictures?

I can see that someone else has asked about this: http://developer.dynamicweb-cms.com/forum.aspx?PID=48&ThreadID=24787
 

Seems that it could possible with getimage.aspx :-)

This wouldnt make much sense with getimage.aspx, since you can always find the orignal file via the URL.

/admin/public/getimage.aspx?image=/Files/Billeder/artikler/fremtid.jpg&width=300

It's not much of trick to copy the image-path if you really want the original without watermark.

Jesper is right.

That being said, my guess is that about 90% won't go looking in the sourcecode for the image path? :-)

In most cases wouldn't that still be the best scenario since you then don't have to mess with the "original" image itself, and can use the getimage to both make thumbs and add watermark?

But if it's images you take yourself (put work in to) then obviously you need to do it in the image itself.

Marco, maybe so :-)

But you don't have to look in the sourcecode. You just need to rightclick the image and copy the image-path. And then of course copy the right part out afterwards. :-) But i can't say how much the avagerage user will work for it ;-)

The best would be some sort of caching of the images via getimage.aspx and a link to the cached version, so you don't "work directly" with the originals. But that's another story :-)
