Uploader / Tag Images
« on: August 11, 2007, 05:11:23 PM »
A popular social networking site has pretty much killed my website due to several reasons. 

The first is the ability to easily upload pictures.  There is some kind of script that allows the files to be selected and resized PRIOR to uploading, making it much faster.  This is the script I want to integrate into my site.

The second is tagging people in the pictures.  I would also like this ability.  Even if it just had a list of users and you found them and clicked add.  This might have to be linked to a friends list style which would be another mod.

Please PM/email me with availability and your estimate and schedule.

Thanks

Lee

If examp can found, I can code this for you.
8 steps need when ask question -

- PHP version (ACP - > phpinfo())
- mySQL version (ACP - > phpinfo())
- 4images version
- Post screenshot / URL
- Post code in BB Code (no need full file for code) or post attach file
- It doesn't work. What is say - what is do for no work
- Install MOD ? If so - please say (troubleshooting)
- Read FAQ ? Install Bug fixes ?

This MOD do it:

http://www.4homepages.de/forum/index.php?topic=7700.0 - This one does not modify it until after the upload, which means that it still takes a while to upload the large files which is what my users don't like


http://www.4homepages.de/forum/index.php?topic=15429.0 (plugin but can modify) - This one looks like it is for FTP than import them.  I am looking for a form/script to let them upload

http://www.4homepages.de/forum/index.php?topic=6759.0 - I have this installed and love it!

http://www.4homepages.de/forum/index.php?topic=14170.0 - I thought of this but the file size is the problem again, and getting users to zip pictures

and direct you:

http://www.4homepages.de/forum/index.php?topic=6978.0 - I have this installed too

An example of the tagging is Facebook.  Also the uploader - I want it to resize to a temporary local directory before uploading to the server, so the file size is smaller and upload faster.

This in 4images ... when upload image (and go ACP - > setting + choose GD / NetPBM or Imagemagik) tmp thumbnail + tmp image upload in data/tmp_thumbnails + data/tmp_media (777). When resize, is upload to data/thumbnails and data/media folder automatic ...

That still wouldn't work.  It still requires the USER to upload the entire LARGE file to the server first, which then converts it and posts it.  I want the plugin to create a temporary directory on the USERS computer to make the file smaller, then upload it.  So a file that is 4000x2500 is resized to 1024x800, then uploaded...

I know - but this is what I want to do!  Ever since facebook started doing it, my users have all abandoned the site and used facebook.
