Hi All

iv been sent to this hosting as people say its good,
and the suport is top noch so im told,,
I want a gallery for my domain but not sure which one to go for
4images
Coppermine
Gallery
Has anyone got any feedback on the galleries

Also iv been reading the tutorials on the site and am abit conufused,,
Hope you can put me in th right direction,,
I use dreamweaver as one of my main servers but this is a bit different with dreamweaver you just put ftp info in and it does it all for you but iv noticed there are a few dir for it to got to
I went to the fantistico to down load the gallery and it askes what dir do i want it to got to

Leave empty to install in the root directory of the domain (access example: http://domain/).
Enter only the directory name to install in a directory (for http://domain/name/ enter name only). This directory SHOULD NOT exist, it will be automatically created!
:dunno::dunno:
All i want is for it to go directly on the internet no messing about
so when i put the web name in it works ,,
what dir should i put in and hoe should it look,,

Hope you can help ,,


:love:

I suggest coppermine. Below are the instructions on how to install it.

Login to cPanel.
Click "Fantastico De Luxe" under "Software/Services"
Find where it says "Coppermine Photo Gallery" and click it
Click "New Installation"
Under "Admin access data" fill in a username and password.
Fill in the text boxes under "Base configuration"
And then click install coppermine photo gallery and follow the instructions on the next few pages.

Make sure you are the only person that can upload files. As long as you keep registrations set to off you will be fine.

Hi Thanks for the fast responce,,

I was looking for a gallery that registerd user can upload photos to Albums,
Also What do i put in the Install Directory??

Keep the install directory blank.

You can not allow other users to upload files here. It is a violation of the terms of service.

It applies to every gallery.
