Rocket Boy -> Work Offer - Automated Galleries (2/14/2006 19:22:30)
Certain circumstances are not going to give me the time to learn this let alone build it and put it in place. At this stage I really just need to find out how much money I will have to spend but... I need a fully automated gallery. People can upload their pics which are auto-cropped for display and then asigned to a page and displayed using something like light lightbox (already on the gallery in question). Max 24 pics per page and then a new page is automatically created and the page number added to the menu system. I really need to try and get somethng that allows me to forget about having to crop and insert images manually but also that my site visitors can use. Thanks in advance for your thoughts or ideas

What language are you looking for?

Rocket Boy -> RE: Work Offer - Automated Galleries (2/14/2006 20:38:55)
In all honesty Corey I hadn't thought about it but also. It doesn't really matter unless you think there will be an lateration in the cost depending on the laguage used!?. The thing is, I don't know too much about how it works and probably need somebody to recommend the best tools for the job.

coreybryant -> RE: Work Offer - Automated Galleries (2/14/2006 20:47:10)
Well the reason I was asking - I have about three different photo galleries - just working on making them a bit compliant :) - and they are ASP. If you wanted PHP, there is Coppermine and the guys and gals over at International Web Developers Network might have one as well. There was one guy that built one and a lot of people seemed to like it but he is MIA right now

Rocket Boy -> RE: Work Offer - Automated Galleries (2/14/2006 20:52:42)
OK, thanks Corey. Will have a look around [;)]

Rocket Boy -> RE: Work Offer - Automated Galleries (2/14/2006 23:28:12)
Quick question... Are there any particular pitfalls with ASP and PHP for this kind of application?

coreybryant -> RE: Work Offer - Automated Galleries (2/15/2006 3:09:58)
If you are on a Windows server - you want to use ASP. If you are on a *NIX server, you want to use PHP

Rocket Boy -> RE: Work Offer - Automated Galleries (2/23/2006 0:45:25)
OK, I am back to the original question.... I need ASP, as Corey said, it's a Windows server but in the tutorials at this site say that I cannot do ASP on Windows Home Edition 'YUCK' So, Who will give me a price for the job?

coreybryant -> RE: Work Offer - Automated Galleries (2/23/2006 7:36:09)
We have a few scripts written in ASP - do you know what components the server supports for upload / resizing?

Rocket Boy -> RE: Work Offer - Automated Galleries (2/23/2006 11:39:23)
See my signature lol. I know nothing, I just no what the end result has to be lol I basically need somebody to tell what info I need to find out in ordr for them to make a successful programming job. To be honest Corey, I wanted to field the work out to somebody else so that I wouldn't have to answer these question but please fire away with anything you need to know.

dpf -> RE: Work Offer - Automated Galleries (2/23/2006 11:49:31)
are you looking for the script to "auto crop" the images or will the user do it?

coreybryant -> RE: Work Offer - Automated Galleries (2/23/2006 11:53:19)
Well I have a few different types of scripts that I can send to you - but with ASP, some things need to be done on the server. I think that they support like ASPUpload, ASPJpg and CSImage. We have a few clients using them - I have just not had the time to go thru the code and clean it up some unfortunately.

Rocket Boy -> RE: Work Offer - Automated Galleries (2/23/2006 19:54:49)
It turns out that because of the nature of the pics.. Cats.. Some peoples pride and joy... They dont like the images cropped so that idea will be junked but... This does mean I am looking for a nice tidy way to diaply thumbnails of all shapes and sizes. The scripts wouldn't be any good for me I don't think. I am under the belief that I cannot work with ASP if I am using Win XP Home edition!?

To easily test if ASP will work

and you should see things after software. If not - it is not work. Make sure you save it with an ASP extension.

I know that IIS will not work on the home edition without some good tweaking - and I am thinking that ASP might not either

Rocket Boy -> RE: Work Offer - Automated Galleries (2/24/2006 11:01:29)
OK thanks Corey, that is something for me to mess around with tonight. Apologies, I hadn't seen this when I replied to your PM. Thanks again.

coreybryant -> RE: Work Offer - Automated Galleries (2/24/2006 12:58:29)
No worries - good luck with it!

dpf -> RE: Work Offer - Automated Galleries (2/24/2006 13:28:43)
quote: I am under the belief that I cannot work with ASP if I am using Win XP Home edition!? having xp home only means that you cannot run a local server to test your scripts. assuming your host runs asp, it has no bearing on using asp on your site. furthermore, if your local pc cannot test your asp scripts, you simply upload them to the server to test - that's what I do.

Rocket Boy -> RE: Work Offer - Automated Galleries (2/24/2006 15:39:10)
That sounds reasonable, thanks. I did think it a bit strange that Home Edition was that lame. I mean I know it's a bit lame but it did seem strange [:)]

Rocket Boy -> RE: Work Offer - Automated Galleries (2/27/2006 18:07:54)
