I have nearly completed the gallery, I opted for the menalto gallery as it got such good reviews and runs quite quicker than coppermine. Please let me have your thoughts on it, suggestions for any more galleries would be helpful. You do not need to register on the gallery to view or upload images, however if you wish your own personal image gallery you will have to register. http://gallery.wwiiforum.com
At this time I have not placed any restrictions on the gallery, my server account is pretty big and can handle most things thrown at it so I will leave it as is and see how we get on.
Just discovered a very worrying security issue with menalto that allows hackers to obtain users e-mail addressess and of course spam them, I will rectify this within the next hour or so.
okay, the gallery is now fully up and running, because of the security issues with menalto I have used Coppermine 1.2.1 which is a very good php/mysql gallery. I have also added a gallery icon and link to the menu bar just below the image at the top of the forums. I have still to change the default skin but you can still upload. You can upload pictures without having to register but if you wish to create your own personal Gallery you will need to register. Any problems let me know
