I had a friend make the new watermarks and to be honest I don't know if the one he made is the same size as the "zencart" watermark that is included in the IH add-on.
So now I'm confused, should all of the watermarks be the same size?
good question so I looked and the ones that come with ih2 are 3 different sizes but all .png
mine at my store are all the same size...so guess it is your pref pretty much.
did you make sure that all the ih2 files got uploaded to their correct spots?
forget everything I just wrote...mine is not there anymore either

I just went through the files again and the only one I'm not 100% sure on is the bmz_cache folder. It's in the IH Store Root folder folder (Root Dir\Store_Root\bmz_cache\....) and it still contains the .htaccess and .keep files.
If IH2 is installed correctly the watermarks should just work when you turn them on in the image settings. (Configuration > Images)
The size of the replacement watermarks is not important, though they should not be larger than the images they will be watermarking because they won't look good.
They do have to be in the right locations and they have to be named correctly.
From the readme. The relevant items are highlighted
Watermarking
In order for watermarking to work for every image dimension the specific corresponding watermark images have to be present. That means, you have to upload files to the following specific locations (these are included in the install package):
- images/watermark.png
- images/medium/watermark_MED.png (or your specified MEDIUM_IMAGE_SUFFIX)
- images/large/watermark_LRG.png (or your specified LARGE_IMAGE_SUFFIX)
The add-on package includes some demo watermark images for small, medium and large sized images featuring a slightly modified Zen-Cart logo for a quick start. Nothing more to do, switch on, switch off, just as you like. Image Handler takes care of generating images accordingly. You can specify where you want the watermark to appear on the image canvas by selecting NorthWest, North, NorthEast, West, Center, East, SoutWest, South and SouthEast for the Watermark Gravity setting. To use your own watermark, simply create replacement watermark images using the image editing software of your choice. (Your custom watermark files should be PNGs using the same image names as the sample watermark images)

Just tested custom watermarks on my test store. All my test watermarks are PNGs, and they are named with the EXACT SAME filename as the default watermarks that come with IH2.

one more idea then...
go to admin/tools/image handler 2/admin (this is in its own section below the menu bar)
click to uninstall it..then install it and clear its cache too.
maybe that might help
also... the image url when using view image does not seem to go to the bmz cache folder it is going to the large folder...Large/Normal?name of image

having only 1 image to show you need to just load it into the product via IH2 control area or upload it to the main images folder---images/image or images/subfolder/image
ih2 I think ignores the Large and Medium folders to an extent. of course I may be confused on that part Diva will let us know.
