We do change user names occasionally. Our (relatively unsophisticated) users tend to use their email address as user name when they register, and I request that they pick another name. Plus we have had some get married (98% women in our forums) and want to change their name (e.g., TiffanyW becomes TiffanyB).

I might have been testing the security on a slightly earlier version of your mod...I need to download it again and check against any recent fixes you've implementd.

What kind of DB layout did you mean?<

First off.. Thanks Burthold - GREAT MOD :) I love it as it really adds a lot to my site.

Here is something some of you may find useful. I hope Burthold doesn't mind me posting this here.

I use the following code to create a link called "My Photos" which appears right under the total # of posts. If an album exists for that member, then the link appears and takes you directly to that member's album. If there isn't an album - then no link. Hopefully someone will find this useful.

DEMO: Check out this thread.. under God1138's name for example.. http://www.segwaychat.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=2580

MOD: http://www.segwaychat.com/files/my-photos-mod.txt

Let me know if you have any questions. You can also email me at: segwaychat@segwaychat.com


BTW, Burthold - If I could ask for some wishlist items..

1 - The Mac compatibility issue.. please :) I have a lot of creative users who want to post photos from their Macs.

2 - The ability to control the maximum # of photos allowed in an album by user... not just a broad brush setting. For example, I may want everyone to start off with a max of 5 photos in their album but I want the flexibility to increase an individual user's max to whatever I wish.

3 - Alphabetize the member list. When you get close to a 1,000 members it's tuff finding them on that list.

4 - Also, I think there is a bug that needs to be fixed. If a member name has a space in it (like "John Doe"), I think they're unable to upload photos.<

i was told that the Mac compatibility thing is due to the Macs uploading in macbinary format, especially from Internet Explorer. could be a red-herring, but worth checking.

i would also like, as well as an Alphabetical list, a list ordered by number of photos. and a list ordered by last upload date. sorry for adding to your workload. just suggestions <

As far as the list goes, alphabetical or not, we have over 2000 members, and would just as soon not even bother with the list. I really like the link that Frank Tropea suggested; that's the way we're planning to implement the photo album on our forums.<

Having problems uploading. When I do the test on the admin page, I get "Write to file failed.No Errors detected, If you are still haveing problems please send me an email to Wesley Brown."

Is there an upload app I need to install?

Before I upload, I get the message under troubleshooting in the Execute NConvert area:
Error: Could not create process
If error reads "Error: Could not create process" then you do not have permission to execute NConvert.exe.

I should I gave it scripts and executables in IIS. Am I close?<

Great mod Burthold! I'm very anxiously awaiting the next release, especially the change to sort the user list and to allow the viewing of only albums that have viewable photos.

Kudos to you for making a mod that has such little impact on the base Snitz code and database.

You mod works wonderfully, Burthold!

I retract my previous concern about the size of the master photo album list. My concerns were misplaced. In addition, we've decided to offer the photo album feature as an incentive to those forum members who reach two stars, so that cuts the number of albums down a bit.

I'm going to modify our photo albums so that the number of allowed files increases with the member's star rank. Might I suggest you consider that feature as a possibility for a future version?

I also modified topic.asp to include a camera icon with a conditional link to the poster's album, in the event that the poster has an album and it is not empty.

I did the same with the user profile, but using a text link instead.

Our users love the photo album. Thanks again for a mod well done.<

I currently have my photoalbum modified from the orignial to the following:

1. Only Shows memebers that have uploaded photos into their album
2. Give count of each members Photos in the members albums listing screen
3. Display's their most recently uploaded updated picture as their album image(keeps the album section looking diffrient).
4. If a user doesn't select a title image for a folder, then it automaticly uses the most recent picture in that folder.
5. Better tweeked to use thumbnails/images properly
6. Display's a "photoicon" in the forums if the user has a album with images.

If anyone wants info on any of the above, let me know.... I like the photoalbum MUCH better now.<

Here's the link to the photoalbum

http://www.indycarz.com/forum/photo_album.asp

We where having a big problem with people stealing images, so I made a Anti-Hot linking filter. This means the Image works if viewed from the site, but shows as stolen image anywhere else.

Example: http://www.indycarz.com/imgsrv.asp?img=v10killer/nice_conversion.jpg

Note that this image will work, if it has be viewd from our site. This has helped with bandwidth ALOT.
