DESCRIPTION
===========

You have downloaded a flexible watermark plugin, which renders a watermark image (or text) of your choice on image files inside your forum.
No more bandwidth theft without your brandmark on it!
The original files aren't modified, so you can change the watermark anytime you wish!
The mod uses a full-featured caching system to offer optimal performance with a minimum of disk space required!


=======
INSTALL
=======

Step 1)

Upload files inside upload directory according to their structure:

> forum root
	> admincp
		+ pl_watermark_admin.php
	> images
		> misc
			+ plwm_sample.jpg
	> includes
		> cron
			+ pl_watermark_cron.php
		> xml
			+ cpnav_plwatermark.xml
		+ pl_watermark_functions.php
		+ pl_watermark_imagemanipulation.php


Step 2)

Import "product-plwatermark.xml" as addon into your vBulletin AdminCP


Step 3)

Navigate in your vBulletin AdminCP to PL Watermark Generator -> Plugin Settings.
Define the settings how you see fit. The options should be self-explanatory, if you need help with certain things, ask in the modification thread.
