Hi,
I've had an SMF forum for a while. Having just had a crash on our hosting server, I'm looking more closely at the whole forum to see what I can do to improve it, whilst I find out about backup (my host's backup failed too....... :( long story :o)
One of the things I'm looking at is images. The forum's audience is photographers. Currently when we want to share images we either upload to our own websites and link over to SMF... which works but isn't ideal. Or we try to upload attachments (and find they are too big to upload... doh!): also not ideal.
Is there a better way to handle images in SMF? Either an add-on that would allow someone to upload an image into a gallery on my server... and then link to it in a forum post. Or better still to open up an image in a viewer and cut/paste it in (that would allow me to do screen-shots of Photoshop when I am telling them about a techinque, for example).
I'd be interested to know what options I have.
Thanks.
Still need some help?
There are some bridges for popular gallery applications you may want to look at.
One of them is gallery2 (http://galleryproject.oldiesmann.us/)
Cheers, sorry for the delayed response, I don't need to check this forum much and it had slipped my mind that I had asked! (<mutters... where did I leave that computer...>)
My website is being redesigned and I asked the designer to add this to the list of stuff somewhere towards the end. I'll point her at this gallery2.
Cheers.
