How to Upload Large Images

Post by nediaz »

Hi

I'm a new web developer and I'm working in a website whose goal is upload large image files.
The idea is the following

1.- Allow to the user upload large image files(.tiff,.jpg, photoshop extension, corel draw ext,etc). Limit of the files 200mb
2.- Present a status bar when the file is loading
3.- Once the file is loaded show to the user a thumbnail of the image loaded

The result would be very similar to the sites: largeformatposters.com, vistaprint.com, etc
I have a account in host dreamhosts
How could I carry out this? I need a strategy before of begin to code

Regards,

Nelson

I think you should look at one of those flash uploaders. Never used them myself but seem to be the right solution for your problem.
