Hi!
I am a user of Gallery 2, and thought I would try out Gallery 3 beta. Install and implementation was extremely painless. I mean WOW.
My problem is the watermarking. I off cause want my photos watermarked so I activated this module in the admin segment of the site. I soon found out that it is using the same watermark for both thumbs AND photos, this is in my opinion not smart, as I either have to use a watermark optimized for the thumb (and the photo will have a VERY little watermark). Or I have to use a watermark optimized for the photo (and the thumb will be virtual unusable).
I miss the options from the watermark section in Gallery 2. ;)
Now the next thing I notice is that the full size image is not watermarked??? If I remember correctly Gallery 2 doesn't do that either, but I still think that gallery 3 should be able to do that. I know for a fact that the derivation of gallery 2 named "RSGallery2" for Joomla! is able to do just that. I know that naming RSGallery2 can be a touchy subject, especially with their security issues.
Never the less I still miss the functionality.
So until the watermark function is improved, can someone tell me where I restrict access to the full size images.

I ran into the same problem with watermarking of thumbs. I just did a quick little hack to disable watermarking of thumbs (I mean, they're tiny anyway, who needs a watermark on them).
In modules/watermark/controllers/admin_watermarks.php:
Line 139, change
to
Then I just made a slight change to the watermark (1% diff in transparency) and rebuilt all the thumbs and resizes and I'm good to go. Seems like this wouldn't be hard for the developers to integrate as an option.

Or simply go to Site Admin > Watermark and uncheck the thumbnail option.
EDIT: Ooops, thinking in G2 land...

There's an open ticket to work on this (complete with code, too iirc).
