I wouldn't mind taking a look at what you put together for an event gateway
if the offer still stands.

This allows you the flexibility of dropping files in there without
worrying about it and it will speed up the process because the older
files will be static watermarked, and you still have the originals if
you ever need un-watermarked files.

RE: imageRead plus imagepaste plus imageGetBlob issue
Within 30 seconds they were all noticed by the event gateway,
watermarked, and copied over. Like magic. :)
See how cool magic is? Heh
Thanks Ray; good stuff. I'll definitely be playing around with this (and
trying to talk the guys hosting my site into letting me set it up on the
server)
I've got the first part done already. Last night I wrote a template that
loops over a directory called /process/. If it finds any images in there it
will loop over them and:
1) load the image into an image object
2) write it to /unwatermarked/ as smaller file size
3) load the watermark.png into an image object
3) imagepaste the watermark to the image object and save it to /watermarked/
4) move the actual file to /original/
Then the header images are retrieved from /watermarked/ as in the example
from before.
So I have a watermarked image, the same image minus the watermark and I have
the original if I ever want to run them back through for a new watermark or
something.

RE: imageRead plus imagepaste plus imageGetBlob issue
You are right though, I am most likely headed to a solution that involves watermarking the images permanently. If the images are never going to be used on the site without a watermark then you will save substantial processing time by doing so. We have a website that allows people to upload a picture which we mark, then they can caption them aka lolcats.com style. So a particular image could have many different captions marked on it. When I first designed it all watermarks were on the fly but after a few days of testing I found I was bogging the server down with extensive processing even though as you say there was a satisfaction of the magic behind it. Now instead we mark the images once and save copies and reference them. It takes up more space but hard drive space was a lot cheaper than more processing power.

RE: imageRead plus imagepaste plus imageGetBlob issue
Whether or not I would use them somewhere else is yet to be determined really. I did like having the non-watermarked versions just incase though, or if I wanted to change the watermark, all I had to do was upload a new watermark.png. I'm sure I'll end up with a mix of everything. It just won't be on the fly. Steven's suggestion was something I considered; once the image's turn comes around, if it hasn't been watermarked, do so, save it, display it. This way I still have an original and a watermarked. Then, if I decide to change the watermark, I can just upload a new one and call some backend process to batch watermark them again. The downside is obviously that it isn't all just magic and that I'll be storing doubles. The upside is, I won't have to keep up with a masthead.psd file for when I want to change the watermark :-) Again, thanks for all the input and ideas. -Original Message- From: UXB Internet [mailto:denn...@uxbinternet.com] Sent: Thursday, June 03, 2010 1:51 PM To: cf-talk Subject: RE: imageRead plus imagepaste plus imageGetBlob issue You are right though, I am most likely headed to a solution that involves watermarking the images permanently.

Luck of the draw maybe, but I did not experience the problem (aside from pixalation). Though I did get a sporadic error message when viewing masthead.cfm directly. Every few refreshes, the following text appears: The image http://acoderslife.com/images/masthead.cfm; cannot be displayed, because it contains errors. But only for a second or two. Then the header image appears as expected. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:334219 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: imageRead plus imagepaste plus imageGetBlob issue
Never saw the issue myself. You know - as fast as CF is - there really is no reason to be doing this on every request. When you've made the watermarked version, you should save it. In fact, I'd just do a one time script to generate them and then dynamically pick from there. Also - I'd consider adding a cfheader above the cfcontent.

RE: imageRead plus imagepaste plus imageGetBlob issue
Thanks for the ideas Azadi,
Sticking the CSS in the head between style tags alone didn't work but adding
?nocache=#hash(now())# to the masthead.cfm URL did resolve it.
I didn't even think to try another way of writing the image out like you
suggested. I'll give that a shot when I get home this afternoon.

Subject: Re: imageRead plus imagepaste plus imageGetBlob issue
browser css/images caching? i did see the problem you described on the
link you posted...
what if you put the css declaration into the page (instead of external
stylesheet) and add a random url param to the bg image url?
style type=text/css
#masthead {background:
url(/images/masthead.cfm?x=cfoutput#createuuid()#/cfoutput) no-repeat;}
/style
i did a very similar thing on a a couple of site, but i had random url
params added to img urls and never saw the problem you see...
i also served the images using a script like this instead of cfcontent
tag:
cfscript
oImg = toBinary(toBase64(objImage)); // can probably use oImg =
imagegetblob(objImage); in your case
context = getPageContext();
context.setFlushOutput(false);
response = context.getResponse().getResponse();
out = response.getOutputStream();
response.setContentType(image/jpeg);
response.setContentLength(arrayLen(oImg));
out.write(oImg);
out.flush();
//response.reset(); //optional for problems
out.close();
/cfscript

RE: imageRead plus imagepaste plus imageGetBlob issue
Interesting. I tried from a few different browsers on Mac and PC... and from home and work. I was able to replicate it in all attempts. I even had a couple of friends try from other locations and they too saw the issue. I've yet to see the error you spotted though. I don't see anything that appears related in the error logs either. I'll keep an eye out for that one.

RE: imageRead plus imagepaste plus imageGetBlob issue
Hi Ray, Permanently watermarking the images is my last option. The way it (sorta) works now is preferable if I can get it to work correctly. Right now, I can just FTP the image to the directory and it starts showing up (complete with watermark) without really doing anything. I know, I'm lazy :-) The cfheader was in there at some point. I must have left it out on one of my failed attempts at fixing this. Thanks for pointing it out. @Leigh, yeah, the pixilation is my fault. I lowered the quality of the images drastically to see if file size was playing a factor. -Original Message- From: Raymond Camden [mailto:rcam...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 02, 2010 6:22 AM To: cf-talk Subject: Re: imageRead plus imagepaste plus imageGetBlob issue Never saw the issue myself.

Re: imageRead plus imagepaste plus imageGetBlob issue
Yeah but there is no reason you can't continue to do that. You can FTP to dir A. Use a cfscheduled task to scan A and copy/watermark new images and then move it to B. So you get the convenience of being able to add new images whenever - and you get the performance of only having to watermark once. :) On Wed, Jun 2, 2010 at 7:14 AM, Bobby Hartsfield bo...@acoderslife.com wrote: Hi Ray, Permanently watermarking the images is my last option.

Yeah, but then I wouldn't get the satisfaction in knowing that it is magic every time I load the page!

RE: imageRead plus imagepaste plus imageGetBlob issue
I've yet to see the error you spotted though. I still see it with FF 3.6.4. But it only seems to happen when the header was viewed directly, and the image always shows up within a second. It might be a browser issue. I see a few references to similar problems with FF. Though I myself would probably go with Raymond's suggestion to watermark once, just to save some processing ;) But I am glad the random hash() seems to do the trick. -Leigh ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:334244 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
