hey i want to thank you for all the scripting :smile:

i wanted to share my site, its brand new, and seems to be working fine, its my first site/gallery/forums :smile:

I just wanted to give a couple recommendations for the script, but im pretty sure youve thought of them.

1. Make it so registered users can only see the smallest available images. I dont want to waste extra bandwith for non-registered users :smile:

2. Add organization to the size of the pictures. Such as the one picture thats on my site right now, it has a big picture, smaller, then original size on there. I dont know if its supposed to be like that but an option to make it small > large would be nice too. This seems to work at times ok, but some other times it messes up (new images ...) I'd like it to always display the smallest one to preserve bandwith, but registered users should be able to pick their preferred size.

3. Some kind of mass delete of selected pictures. The way its setup now, you delete, it asks you to confirm, then takes you back to the admin page, then you have to go back to the gallery to delete the next picture.

4. Some way to move images to a new one (subforum or such)

also a way to change passwords(for admin, without editing config file) and add extra admin/mods.
thats all i really have, dont want to pressure anyone , but while your working on it might as well look into those things to make the best script possible.. but take my sugestions only if you think they will make it better, its your decision

thanks for the script, now im off to find out how to configure and add some color to this thing :smile:

You can do this yourself using the permissions system.

Yes, that will happen (eventually).

This may not show up until G2.1

That'll be in G2.0

When we add the user preferences page you'll be able to easily change your password, etc. Admins can change anybody's password now using the Site Admin interface. What do you mean by "add extra admin/mods"?

i'd like to have the username bjamm be the admin instead of 'admin' being the login. Or create an extra account for someone to manage while im out of town or somethin..

thanks for the fast reply :smile: :grin:
