Add watermark image for main content
« on: April 24, 2008, 06:32:41 PM »
Hi All,

I was wanting to add a watermark (faded image) of my organisation's logo behind the main content (text) panel. What do think is the best way to do this?  I'm using the Chromatophore template.

Thanks for the suggestions

Darren

There's a discussion about preventing downloads and watermarking here:

Hi..  thanks for the link.  Watermarking is mentioned in this post, but there's no details on how to do it. 

Also, I'm not doing it to prevent downloads... but as a design element.

Anyone else got some ideas?

Darren, do you mean as in can be seen at http://www.events.com.fj/who-are-you-dealing-with.html?
(The big yellow plumeria flower that distracts from the content.)

If so, you'll need to ask in the chromotophore forum. I haven't used it yet so am not familiar with what the main content area id/classes are.

Hi GollumX.   YES!  This is exactly what I want to do.  This was in the Chromatophore forum and the Mods moved it.   How would you do it in a general sense?   Is there a CSS equivalent command for "float this image behind the text".  The only other way I can think of is to add some HTML lines to the main template file. Messy!

I'm looking to do the exact same thing - putting a company logo behind the content text.

Was there a solution to this?

Thanks,
Lynette
