Gallery2 watermark plugin uses graphic packages such as NetPbm, 
ImageMagick, Dcraw, ffmpeg, GD to convert graphic files and re-write 
them with a watermark image superimposed on them. The typical AVC for 
getattr and read are:

   Aug 25 18:06:46 gei kernel: audit(1188079606.937:995): avc:  denied 
   { getattr } for  pid=19252 comm="composite" name="kohokan_com_png"
   dev=dm-0 ino=2163199
   scontext=system_u:system_r:httpd_sys_script_t:s0
   tcontext=system_u:object_r:httpd_tmp_t:s0 tclass=file
   .
   .

   denied  { read } for  pid=19870 comm="pngtopnm"
   name="kohokan_com_png" dev=dm-0 ino=2163199
   scontext=system_u:system_r:httpd_sys_script_t:s0
   tcontext=system_u:object_r:httpd_tmp_t:s0 tclass=file

The kohokan.com.png is a watermark file that is uploaded through the web 
interface.
