Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Help with WGET and renaming downloaded files :( Post 302446828 by konsolebox on Thursday 19th of August 2010 10:25:08 PM

If you want to watermark an image everytime that wget fetches it , you have to separate each wget call per url in a loop in a shell script. Then everytime wget successfully downloaded an image, the script will call another tool to add watermark to the image. The problem arises with how you will save the images to your local directories.

With respect to watermarking, there are lots of tutorials on the web on how to do it like in these pages:
