I would imagine that any one with even a slight visual impairment won't even know the text is there.

Would not white text on an almost black background be as easy to code? It sure would be slightly easier to read!

Other than my inability to know what the check-boxes are for, I find your App to be most useful.

I can read it clearly but I guess it is due to different graphic and screen settings. There will be made a setting to change the font color.

Change your watermark text back to what gave your error and try now please. Changes are made in the database to support longer watermark text.

Actually no, the checksum of this image says that it has been modified..
Have you resized it after the screenshot was taken with Autoscreen?

You must use the resize options in Autoscreen to resize images,
if you resize after a screenshot is stored, the unique image code changes (checksum) and it will show as a modified image.

The original screenshot you took, had checksum: 16E760BBED8D9BF39D2272680CE69BD7, the uploaded image has checksum: 6DDD72C5C57D8B5C6464BAA30068EDD3

So I'm sorry to say that this image will not be valid, since it shows as modified, (you can check yourself with the function on the Action menu).

Please use the resize options in Autoscreen to resize.
These settings you only have to do one time and they will apply on all screenshots.

No i havent resize the image.
Maybe the "watermark text too long" error was the problem.
i checked the image using Action menu and the return was 6DDD72C5C57D8B5C6464BAA30068EDD3.
So no problem here, more globies coming...

(remember to not resize or modify the screenshot outside of Autoscreen, this will make the checksum invalid, since it will change. Use Autoscreens resize option if you need to resize the screenshot)

Are you sure they're not just screenshots or skillgains?

Thats the problem the code ending on DD3 is not the original image code.
You have 2 pictures logged in the database, one ending on AD1 and one on BD7

The problem is because EF resize images on upload it seems, so therefore you should use the resize option in Autoscreen to keep below EF's limit.

As far as I can see, EF resize the images by bytes, so use the function "Use JPEG Smart Quality, and set this to max 300kb. Then you should be good inside the EF upload limit.

This is a pretty important issue, so will add this to the first post.

I will send you an PM with my mail address and you can mail me the original image so that I can verify it for the contest.
