Heading image in Effervescence+

Should the heading image really be watermarked? I would prefer that it isn't. That change is simple enough for me to make in my local copy. I'm just wondering if it was overlooked in the original design.

  • That is a theme choice. It can be changed by passing a 'true' as the eighth (better check, this if from memory) parameter to the custom image function. Some people want the image watermarked, some don't. I suppose that ef+ could have an option for that choice.
  • You are correct. The last function argument is the one that denotes whether it should be watermarked or not.

    I just think watermarks in the thumbnails are not aesthetically pleasing. You can only specify one size watermark, and it doesn't get scaled to the image size on which it is being applied. So if you make a 32x32 pixel watermark to combat HUGE watermarking of thumbs (in this case the heading), the watermark in the actual image will be _tiny_.
  • I released a change that adds an option to ef+ so you can have it either way.

    "thumbnails" don't get watermarked. The parameter on custom image was made to let the them say whether the image was being used as a "thumbnail" or as a regular image (e.g. in stopdesign.)
  • I noticed. Thank you.

    The term "thumbnail" as I described it would mean any image smaller than the full image to which ZenPhoto applies the watermark.
  • I understand. I was using the term in the strict zenphoto sense--an image that stands in with the link to the larger image or the album.
