Hi all, I have joined this community today. I have a few queries for watermarked image. I have a site which watermarks a image. I upload a desired image of say 2000 x 3000and file size is 3MB .I just watermark the image in the centre ,the original image with original sizes( 2000 x 3000)after uploading will be shown in the site with reduced size of 600 x 500 . The client for whom im working says the photo takes a long time to show up in the site . The reason it takes such a long time bcos it has to download 3 Mb size Now my question is is there any way or code by which i can reduce the download time so that it can download in a few seconds . Thanks for replying in advance
Regards
Santo
What graphic file format are you using? It could be that the file isnt being compressed sufficiently.
If you're new to PHP, this will be a tad difficult. If you have a little experience, look into [man]image_copy_resampled/man and its friends. An 2000x3000 3MB image being shown by HTML and resized with length/width parameters in the IMG tag is still 3 MB . . .
Perhaps you should re-size the image before you upload it.
Why upload such a large image only to re-size it 😕
Not logical captain!
Perhaps he wishes to offer his beautiful images in extremely high-resolution for his paying clientele? 😉
Instead of displaying the high resolution image at a reduced size, display a low rez, watermarked image for display only, and link it to the high rez, high quality image for download and (assumably) printing.
