Ideas: Add licensing options

[achappuis]

Hi,
For what I saw photos are published without any copyright notice. What about having licensing options for each image or on a folder basis.

I'd like to know the license for your software program.

@jungle-boogie That's a whole different issue you're talking about. You should open a new issue next time. About the license of PhotoShow: the index.php states

 * PhotoShow is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
 * it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
 * the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
 * (at your option) any later version.

Thanks HungryFeline, I was going to tell him exactly the same :D

Well, as long as I'm here :

Aurelien, I agree this would be a great addition (in fact, I've wanted to
add that since photohshow V2.0). I think the best way to do it is to use
php's image editing function, so that the Prodiver.php file adds the
copyright on top of any displayed photo (if requested by the PhotoShow
admin, of course). Sadly, I do not have much time those days to take care
of that. But, yeah, it's been on my mind for a while, not only because it's
practical, but also because it would be fun to implement ;)

Hello Thibaud,

I'm not sure about what you meant, and the role of Provider.php, I guess what you meant is that it shall be possible to add the exif copyright from PhotoShow, thanks to the php's image editing function?

I started by adding a 'Copyright' field in the Exif.php, so the already existing copyright information are shown with the other exif information.

[thibaud-rohmer]

Yep, that' s exactly what I meant.

If you only add the copyright in the exif, it'll be easily removable. If
you manage to apply a COPYRIGHT on top of the image (a watermark), when
displaying it, then it' s harder to remove.
