Inconsistent watermark sizes depending on pictures ratio

Hi Gilles, and happy new year to you too. ;-)

My problem doesn't seem to be the same as the one you pointed me too: I
have no orientation problem for the pictures themselves (their orientation
is good all along my workflow starting from the memory card import phase).

My issue concerns the size of the watermark, depending on the picture
landscape/portrait 'orientation' (there might be another less confusing
word, but I cannot find it at the moment). I'm currently setting up a
Flickr gallery here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/mnaugendre with pictures
that are resized to 1024px. If you browse the gallery, you'll see that the
watermark remains - more or less - the same size for portrait pictures as
for landscape pictures.

But to achieve this result, I had to use the watermark at 20% for landscape
pictures, and at 40% for portrait pictures. So, for each selection I want
to upload to Flickr, I need to separate the pictures in two batches, and
apply two different set of rules.

By the way, I had no such problem with my Piwigo gallery
http://www.marie-noelle-augendre.com/photos as the pictures here are
uploaded without a watermark, that is applied on the fly by Piwigo itself.

Hope this will clarify the issue.
