Pay For Help Cause I Don't Get It

Post by DareDad »

After about 4 hours of reading "multiple" pages of posts regarding this topic I came to the realization I'll stick to construction because you guys are way smarter then I am if ya'll can understand that greek...heh I am looking for a simple yet secure solution for my sons little go karting website. Within the page I offer an area for visitors to view the current point/weekly results. In addition visitors are allowed to click driver names and view their porfile in a small little pop up. The component I am actively seeking is the PhP/MySQL upload component. I would like the script to do the following: 1) Check image size/dimensions to ensure the file does not exceed those set by me. If it does either or then redirect back to the page with a stated message File Size Too Large, Please Resize and Resubmit or File Exceeded Dimensions "X" x "X", Please Resize and Resubmit. **NOTE: From what I have read I know the script itself can resize/reproportion the image iteslf with no interaction from the end user but does this added portion of the script effect cpu/bandwidth tie downs on the server? If so is it even noticable for a little site like mine that wont get a lot of use of this script? If not then automated would be fine as well :D 2) Resize the original (if automated) to an exact dimension and save the new file with an always unique name. 3) Resize and rename the already saved large thumbnail for saving purposes for a small thumbnail. Meaning take the original: Make a large copy of it save that copy and then make a small version of the large copy and save that copy of it and then trash the orginal submitted image) 4) To hlp get it to work with mysql. 5) Update the db with two things relating to a keyID: userID - 1) Point The url of both images (1 image url per column) 2) Not sure if mysql allows this like Access but would like to link the image with the url of the driver website. So when someone clicks the large version of the image it will take them to their home website. I have an existing database but its for the little forum. I am allowed up to 5 with my current host so can make a new one if needed so let me know how much something like this would cost. I am not rich but maybe when I get my return back I can set a little aside so I can add in this little feature one of the drivers this weekend asked me to do. Thanks again :)

I rekkon I don't really have a time frame because for now I can just have drivers email me and I can manually update the page myself which isn't the end of the world am just thinkin of utilizing some of my PhP automation since I am paying for it anyways. In regards to budget....I ain't looking to spend a small fortune because based on my searches of this forum the scripts are out there...I just don't know how to put it all together to make one that fits my needs exactly. I know I ain't looking to spend more then 50 bucks so if ya'll think it cost more then let me know so I can just keep on doin the whole email me and I will manually update the site. thanks.

I suggest reading this sticky thread and making this job posting in a more quick and easy to read format:

Sami,

I appologize for not properly listing the job as described in the forums sticky topic but I did read the sticky prior to posting this request but was under the impression the sticky referred to "real" jobs and not little bity scripts like this one. I will resubmit the small job within this thread in the above format upon return from a small little retaining wall I need to go construct. Thanks again for the feedback. Sorry for the delay in replying but I had a terminal harddrive failure and have had to purchase and install a new harddrive and find this forum again....heh Thanks again and look forward to any future PhP Devloper replies I may receive upon revising the job description in this thread.
