PHP, MySQL Photo Gallery
Posted on Thursday at 2:10am
I am currently developing a PHP-driven photo gallery with a MySQL database backend. The result of my work in progress can be seen on my photos page.
The short-term goal is to provide myself with an easily-updated photo gallery that I will continue to use on my own website. The long-term goal is to be able to easily migrate the application for use on any of my clients websites. So far it's going very well, and includes the following features:
- Create albums on the fly with their own separate thumbnails
- Image upload form automatically creates two or three images:
- thumbnail - for album view
- medium - for viewing as large as web site's frame allows
- hi-resolution - to be downloaded and viewed full-scale
- only created if image is larger than web site's frame
- Album view automatically sorts the images by their year
- Captions allowed for both albums and images
- Able to sort albums based on which had the latest updates
- "Next" and "Previous" image links to allow for quick album browsing
More features will be added frequently, but please leave your comments under this journal entry or contact me with any suggestions you have that you'd like to see incorporated. Thanks!
