[TYPO3-dam] New extension "damlightbox" - sounds interessting?

Not necessary, I worked on sourceopt before and will fix that bug there.

that is no really good option, cause
1) loading content elements like this is quite popular. I'm using it on 
many occasions.
2) often the uid is not fixed, cause content elements are loaded through 
an extension that selects a content element according for display.

Obviously the problem is somewhere else. When using:
    damlightbox.10.5 = TEXT
    damlightbox.10.5.data = GPvar:content
The uid (here 140) is displayed within the lightbox. But when switching 
the debugging on, no data is debugged within the lightbox.

That sounds good.
I checked your watermark TS, and it works perfectly. It helped me 
understanding how damlightbox works.
- the only drawback with all this watermarks through GIFBUILDER is that 
it decreases the image quality dramatically. So for me I will come back 
to good old Photoshop and watermark my images before uploading.
