im not sure if this is the right forum for this topic.
you see, ive been searching for a simple php script so users of my site can upload their own photo with a few details about themselves, like in a profile. then a thumbnail of all the uploaded photos will be displayed in a gallery. and clicking on the thumbnails will take them to the profile. im not looking for a dating site script.
i dont know anything about writing php codes. if anyone of you could just point me in the right direction, i would appreciate it very much. thanks!
=users of my site can upload their own photo with a few details about themselves, like in a profile. =then a thumbnail of all the uploaded photos will be displayed in a gallery. =and clicking on the thumbnails will take them to the profile.
first you need a lightweight image uploading script, make sure directory is htaccess protected and world writable.. then a module to make thumbnails for those images, store in a separate directory also world writable and htaccess protected..
for the page that shows the thumbnail, just set the link to profile.php?user=$user or whatever u are using.. i could use some code that you have started on

Don't think that coppermine is the solution, try my access_user class
this way you have a complete member script, if this is running well its "easy" to add the upload function and later the gallery of users..

yes, coppermine is not what im looking for. i dont need users to display lots of pictures. one photo is enough which will be used in their profile and resized to display in the gallery as well.
olaf, i've downloaded your script and i will be asking plenty of questions soon... thanks!
