 * hey guys. i have successfully used the “use image as watermark” feature in the
   past but it has now stopped working for me…the watermark just won’t show up on
   my gallery images. here are the details:
 * 1) the path is fine and the watermark image is showing up on the preview image
   in the “options” section.
 * 2) i can watermark with text no problem
 * 3) i am using a .png file and i have enabled allow_url_fopen (i host on mediatemple(
   gs)). although i did just migrate the site recently from one host/domain to mediatemple…
   but i think i had used the feature sucessfully since then too.
 * anyways. i’m really stuck. any ideas? much appreciated.

 * i’m a fool…you have to supply a full url even though the preview image will show
   the watermark even if you only include a relative url. and i have to keep allow_url_fopen
   enabled even though mediatemple’s knowledge base says that’s not the best idea
   as far as security is concerned…oh well…fixed.

 * I cant get the watermark feature to work at all. I have the full path of my .
   png file. Its shows in the preview. The progress bar goes through 100%, but no
   watermark shows up. any ideas? I am using the latest version of WP and NG allow_url_fopen
   is on (at least it says it is} Im on media temple too.
