My question: I would like to put a "watermark" of my logo on images, and I can do so with the Map, Bump Map Filter. However, the location of the bump map is a problem. At 0 on the X and Y Offset sliders, it goes into the upper left hand corner. OK. The problem is the sliders only move to -1000, and my images are often larger than that, and I want to put the bump map into the lower right hand corner, and the sliders will not allow that. Typing in the numbers doesn't work, and moving the bump map in the preview with the middle mouse button doesn't work. Of course if I make the images smaller I can get it into the right hand lower corner, but I want to use the larger image. Any solution for this, or do I have to just live with this ... defect(?) for now. Thank you!

Judy,

Thanks for all your efforts to support The Movement. :-)

I can't answer the question you are asking, however, I use a perl script that invokes ImageMagick to add watermarks to large quantities of images.

http://www.imagemagick.org

Since I do put my watermark in the upper left corner, I have not paid attention to whether ImageMagick can apply the watermark based on the position from the lower right corner, but I would guess that it can.

And if the answer to that is no, there is another trick you could try, especially if you are using a script to batch process. First, make your watermark image upside down and backwards. Then rotate each image 180 degrees, apply the watermark, flatten the image, and rotate it back to upright.

Last note: When I batch process to apply watermarks, I always only apply to _copies_ of the images as invariably I later need the original without watermark for some other use. (This also prevents destroying the original if your batch script does not do as expected.)

Jay

Not sure if this will help, but it's one way of easily adding a "watermark" if you need to:

I can't address the bump map issue, but I've attached a script I recently wrote to add a watermark to an image in the lower right corner. I'm sure others have done similar things long ago but I've found it useful; it can be used in batch mode or via the ui. Just stick it in your .gimp-2.8/scripts folder. It will appear under "garya" on the main menu bar; you probably will want to change that label :-) and the default watermark file name/location.

Well, if we are suggesting alternatives, perhaps you may want to consider adapting this:

Hi Judy,

The limits are now -10000 and 10000, I have no clue how that silly small limit happened in the first place. Thanks for being a long time GIMP user! :)

Bug 707354 - Bump Map offsets only go to 1000 regardless of image size

Allow ranges from -10000 to 10000, still arbitrary but more real-world. The scales still go -1000 to 1000, but the spinbuttons allow for the full range.

Hello,

First of all, thank you very much for this wonderful script. It works great! I was wondering if there is a simple way to place the watermark in a different place. Could you please help us?

Thank you!
