Can anyone please point me in the right direction.
I am looking for a photo uploader tutorial that will take photos and reduce them in size, create two copies (one thumb and one larger version) and upload them to a specified directory and enter into mysql database. Something like what is in facebook would be great.
Also, along the same line, can anyone tell me how I can design using mysql database and php (and maybe flash) so my photos open in a really nice gallery. The kind that resizes the photos and opens in front of the screen.
Thanks a mill in advance...

Re: Photo Uploader and Viewer - PHP MySQL
I'm almost positive you're never going to find one tutorial that shows you how to do all that stuff. Break the problem down into smaller chunks & you might have more luck:
- How to upload files
- How to move uploaded files
- How to create thumbnails of images with PHP (and GD)
- Lightbox
Real programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand.

Thanks for your response...
I actually have some script that does most of what I want. Uploads and stores in a database and even makes a thumbnail version.
But it works using a normal form and the interface is a bit shoddy... It tends to get stuck quite a bit too...
Surely almost all web designers come across this exact issue with many of their sites...
What is lightbox by the way?
Cheers

I don't know exactly what your issue is, so it's hard to say how wide-spread it is.
If you're having specific problems with specific parts of your code, please post the relevant snippet & we can help. It's impossible to help when the problem isn't clear.
Google has a pretty good idea of what Lightbox is
