phpWatermark 0.3
Posted by chengfu on 26 Oct 2002 2:50 pm. Filed under phpWatermark , Software.
phpWatermark 0.3 is ready for download.
What is phpWatermark?
phpWatermark is a php class aiming to provide a simple way of marking an image with a digital “watermark” to prevent unauthorized use.
What’s new?
- Experimental support for adding images has been included. This function is currently absolutely unusable for production environments as it completely ignores the transparency settings of the overlay images. If you find a way to correct this error please let me know!
- Many people asked me how to change the color of the embedded text. Versions prior to 0.3 did not support this, phpWatermark always tried to determine a usable color by itself. Starting with 0.3 you may specify a color by yourself either via a hex code or rgb values.
The current version of phpWatermark can be downloaded here:
phpWatermark-0.3.tar.gz
phpWatermark-0.3.zip

Very nice little script, the only watermarking script that worked for me actually!
One question : do you make the text watermarks transparent inside the main class? I’d like to make them opaque and more visible, is this possible?

@Fernando
Sure, if you have good ideas and want to share them I would really like to publish them in a new version of phpWatermark. Unfortunately I’m currently not actively developing it because I’m not actively using it anymore.
@Sugar
Yes, the watermarks always have a transparent background so they don’t sit on the image like a colored box. Currently there is no easy way to change this via parameters, but you can edit it directly in the code. Look for a comment saying “Choos transparent color for watermark”. This will define the background color of the watermark $mark_bg. Just change this to the color of your choice and then, a few lines below, comment out the line beginning with “imagecolortransparent” which sets the background transparency.

Great little script - quick, friendly, and it works!
Would be nice to set an offset parameter, so that the bottom of the text in the BM position, for example, could be tweaked a little higher.

Hey Guys love the site, just been working on a section on my site (album) and i am trying to make it so all images in the upload folder on my server are wartermarked, i came accross your script, but i understand that at the moment you can only watermark one image at a time, it would be great if someone could tell me how to make it automatically watermark all files in a folder of images. Cheers
