Hi,

Wouldn't it be great to add the function of a photo album?

I visited sourceforge.com and there are a number of php photo album scripts. But I want to implement it with Vbulletin 2.
What I want it to do is the following:
People have lets say, 1-2mb to upload their pictures to their own album. They can only edit their own album, the rest of the viewers can only view the album. And ofcourse, me as a webmaster has to be able to edit it.

Are there people who are also interested in this?
I'm not that good with php, I'm still learning. Are there people who want to make this?

Steggy... I'ld love to see this hack :)
22 Mar 2001, 13:27
I know, I think a lot of people are interested in such a hack. Now I need someone who can make this or can help me making it.
22 Mar 2001, 13:35
ICQ me. Let's give it a try. :)

I would love to see that as well!

The script we are going to use is Gallery. You can find it here: http://gallery.sourceforge.net/

If anyone wants to help, ICQ me ( UIN = 18101322 )

This would be a great hack if integrated into VB. Most of my members are asking for their own photo gallery even though we have a site-wide gallery with the ability of people to upload.

Are you going to use ImageMagick with this hack? I read in the Gallery docs. that there were looking to use this as well.

Anyways I and others are eagerly waiting for this hack.....

Thanks,

I'm starting the hack from another existing script called phpGraphy (http://phpgraphy.sourceforge.net)
Because I need atleast PHP 4.04pl1 for Gallery. And that will take a while. I installed phpGaraphy without hacking it and it works great. So now I can start hacking it.

Maybe someone has some tips for me on how to use global.php in VBulletin for logging in.

If I want to combine this script with VB, do I have to copy the script to the VB direcory, or can it be anywhere else?

I know.. I had very little time to work on it. And I couldn't find a good existing script to hack. But I think I found one and I'll try if I can combine it with vB. It's called PhotoDB. You can check it on Sourceforge.

I created a Photo Gallery App that integrates with VB's user database and has a similar "look" when users post comments about photos.. Tons of features. I'd love to have feedback:

Do you work with the NSA or something? :eek:

That is very professional work and I really love the photo gallery. And its in your CGI-BIN, that makes it all the better...

Keep up the good work...

Thanks :). It has more features than the $240 one sold here, http://www.imagefolio.com. I spent countless hours on it and to help defray server costs/etc for my site I'm probably going to sell licenses for the application within a couple weeks at a much more reasonable price that Imagefolio. If you're interested, let me know! I'm going to probably do two versions: one that will work with vbulletin and one that is a standalone app with its own registration system etc.

Thats awesome, very nice work. Whats the status of this as far as allowing others to use your script? I would love something like this for my site.

It's probably a few weeks away from primetime. I need to write an installation routine and some documentation, and do a bit more testing.

Scott, this looks a useful bit of software - but it looks like it's all written in Perl / using CGI rather than sticking to PHP. Is this right?

Have you just emulated tha vBulletin look & feel and used the Perl mySql stuff to get the data out, rather than using the core vBulletin stuff itself?

Personally I need a PHP solution that integrates tightly but with flexibility into vBulletin.

Good effort though, looks good. When will a version be available for download? :)

It's just a few days away from being ready now. I'm optimizing the code today and finishing up the admin control panel. I'll post an address where you can get it, ASAP.

http://gallery.sourceforge.net/

There was some talk last year about integrating the Gallery from source Forge into VBulletin. Did anyone ever do this ?

I am interested in this project and perhaps if it has not been started we can get it going again.

Once completed it will be a free hack / add on.

I think it should not be two difficult to integrate the member usenames and password from vbulletin into GALLERY, what are your thoughts.

Is it not just a matter of using your vbulleting database for GALLERY and then having galleries user tables pull the info from the vbulletin tables ?

I am still a novice so any help would be appreciated.

i dont know if you're referring to me, but the photo ablum hack ive made is only for own board, ill maybe rls it when v3 comes out cuz right now it seems like a waist of time to edit the files so other could use it.

As a recent customer of PhotoPost, i'll say that you cannot go wrong purchasing this software. Scott is very helpful with the particulars, and the photo gallery has made my site 2x as popular as before. Here's a link to the gallery:
