A problem I'm having is my logo on my photo's is getting cropped out or partially cropped when a client orders a larger print size. Not exactly sure how to fix this.
I tried applying a small watermark, but I could not find out to make it smaller, it's huge and covers most of the pictures, when what I want is a small one on the bottom right corner. and I'm pretty sure that they watermark does not get printed in the orders, right? Is there a way to make that happen?
thanks in advance.

Funny you should mention this ... :evil
Stay tuned. Can't say when, but we're looking at this.

I hope that if (when?) you offer this that you also retain the current option of showing a watermark in a gallery but not printing it.

Oh of course :D It's a very specific use case (think: Amusement Parks, sports team shooters, possibly fine art pros, etc). But yeah, for the most part, customers gak at anything printed on their prints. Pros must really think this through :)

Would not simply adding a watermark to the original file itself and leaving a bit of room for bleeding around the edges?
The watermark in smugmug is not printed, but if you add one before you upload it, then that one will print.
