WATERMARKING IMAGES inside YOUR Members Section....

Yes / No ? :thumbsup

I watermark all images, members section or not. They always end up elsewhere.

You have to these days when somebody can pull your whole site onto their harddrives in minutes

Only (-) I can imagine would be the time involved?

There are plenty of programs that can do it in seconds. I would never leave my pictures unwatermarked so they can be stolen and posted elsewhere.

Here's a great programme for doing batch work and it does everything...

http://www.atalasoft.com/ It's the programme called Eye Batch.

Looks like a cool program.. I use Arles 5.2.8 or whatever the newest version is and it does a amazing job.

I would never post in public or in members area a image without a watermark.

Allways watermark your images because they end up all over the place and you get typin traffic. You can use image magik to watermark the images already on your server. This way you don't have to ftp them again.

You can use this code and save it as watermark.cgi or whatever. Place the watermark.jpg in the same folder as the cgi.

#!/usr/bin/perl

$position="SouthWest"; # can be NorthWest, North, NorthEast, West, Center, East, SouthWest, South, SouthEast

$watermark_pic = "watermark.jpg";
$composite = "/usr/bin/composite";

BEGIN {
$debug = 0;
if ($debug) {
print "Content-type: text/plain\n\n";
open (STDERR, ">&STDOUT");

select(STDERR); $| = 1;
select(STDOUT); $| = 1;
}
}

$startdir = "$ENV{DOCUMENT_ROOT}";
"/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin" =~ /(.*)/; #untaint path
$ENV{'PATH'} = $1;
&getinput;

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n<html><body>\n\n";

open (STDERR, ">&STDOUT");

$cgi{'dir'} = &canonical_path($cgi{'dir'});

if ($cgi{'submit'} eq "Watermark") {
&do_dir("$cgi{'dir'}");
} else {
if ($cgi{'dir'} eq "") {
&list_dir($startdir);
} else {
&list_dir("$cgi{'dir'}");
}
}

print "\n<body>\n</html>\n";

sub getinput() {
@pairs= split(/&/,$ENV{'QUERY_STRING'});
foreach $pair (@pairs) {
($name,$value) = split(/=/,$pair);
$value =~ tr/+/ /;
$value =~ s/%([a-fA-F0-9][a-fA-F0-9])/pack("C",hex($1))/eg;
$cgi{$name} = $value;
}
}

sub do_dir() {
$dir = $_[0];
$dir =~ /(.*)/;
$dir = $1;
print "<pre>reading $dir\n\n";
opendir(DIR, $dir) or die "Could not open dir $dir: $!";
my @files = readdir(DIR);
closedir DIR;

for $file (@files) {
next if ($file =~ m/^\./);
$file =~ /(.*)/; #untaint file
$file = $1;
# print "processing $dir/$file\n";
if (-d "$dir/$file") {
&do_dir("$dir/$file");
} else {
my ($dev,$ino,$mode,$nlink,$uid,$gid,$rdev,$size,
$atime,$mtime,$ctime,$blksize,$blocks) = stat("$dir/$file");

next if ($size < 20000); # don't watermark thumbnails

if ("$dir/$file" =~ m/jpe?g/i) {
print "marking $dir/$file\n";
open(TEST, ">$dir/test.txt") or die "Can't open $dir/test.txt: $!";
print TEST "1";
close TEST;

system("$composite -compose Bumpmap -watermark 30x30 -gravity $position $watermark_pic $dir/$file $dir/$file");
}
}
}
print "\n\n</pre>\n";
}

sub list_dir() {
$dir = $_[0];
print qq|Select a directory to watermark:<br>
<form action="$ENV{'SCRIPT_NAME'}" method="GET">
<ul>
|;

opendir(DIR, $dir) or die "Could not open dir $dir: $!";
my @files = readdir(DIR);
closedir DIR;

for $file (@files) {
next if ($file =~ m/^\.$/);
if (-d "$dir/$file") {
my $path = &canonical_path("$dir/$file");
my $path_enc = &urlencode($path);
opendir(DIR, $path);
my @jpegs = sort( grep( /jpe?g/i, readdir(DIR) ) );
closedir DIR;

if ($#jpegs > 0) {
$jpeg_list = "<ul><li>$jpegs[0]</li><li>$jpegs[1]...</li></ul>\n";
} else {
$jpeg_list = "";
}

print qq|<li>
<input type="radio" name="dir" value="$path_enc">
<a href="$ENV{'SCRIPT_NAME'}?dir=$path_enc">
$path
</a>
$jpeg_list
</li>|;
}
}
print qq|
</ul>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Watermark">
</form>
|;
}

sub urlencode{
my($text)=$_[0];
for (0..255) {
$escapes{chr($_)} = sprintf("%%haha2X", $_);
}
## Regular expression for escaping special chars.
$text =~ s/([^;\/?:@&=+\$,A-Za-z0-9\-_.!~*'()])/$escapes{$1}/g;

return $text;
}

sub canonical_path {
my $in = $_[0];
my @inparts = split("/", $in);
my @outparts;
foreach $part (@inparts) {
if ($part eq "..") {
pop(@outparts);
} else {
push(@outparts, $part);
}
}
return join("/", @outparts);
}

Watermark everything, pics, movies and put your URL clearly on your banners if possible.

There are guys even stealing banners and other types of promo art work and using them to send traffic to different programs.

So the answer to your question is a BIG YES. Watermakr all the pics on your members section as well as movies.

This is a cool way to do it

Go down toward the bootom of the page and look for "The Best Thing Since Bubble Wrap".

LOL no my programmer did. I'm too dumb ;)

I have never watermarked photos in my members areas in the past, but now that most sites do, and with the rampant unauthorised circulation of content, it's time to start.

I think any sponsor who offers promotional content to affiliates should definitely watermark their photos.

We watermark everything. May as well get some type in traffic when they share them with all their freinds :)

It's an easy batch process in PS, takes 30 seconds.
