New project - general advice before I start

Post by MiniMonty »

Hi all,

I'm about to start a project and it includes a couple of things I've never dealt with before so I'm looking for general advice on one or two areas.

The big picture:
It's an online photography college.
Users will need to sign up and become members - never dealt with this before in any way.
Once signed in they will be able to upload images to one of six or seven galleries - (dealing with the images is obviously critical) done this but with varying success especially with reliable resizing.
Voting - users will be able to vote for a best image each month - have no idea how to approach this.

So all and any advice / help / pointers / links and pitfalls to avoid very much appreciated.
Best wishes
Monty
