GingerRobot Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 A random user? What are you doing to do, force them to upload a picture? If you google you will find TONS of examples for this kind of thing. You might have to view tutorials for different bits to get the gist of it though.

sumfight Posted June 6, 2008 Author Share Posted June 6, 2008 Ok can you tell me if this would be a good idea since I don't really know to much about databases If I can find a script that lets users upload a picture and resize it(possibly add a watermark too) then instead of doing a database since I suck at it, could I just have a random picture from the folder displayed, or would that be a lot of strain on the server?

GingerRobot Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Nope, that's a perfectly fine thing to do too. Pretty sure you'll find tutorails for it as well. Though it of course a different thing to having a database, which would allow you more control and allow pictures to be linked to users (spose you could do that through file/folder naming, but it wouldn't be pretty) and allow people to browse pictures linked to a user etc. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/109018-upload-and-image-help/#findComment-559292 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sumfight Posted June 6, 2008 Author Share Posted June 6, 2008 What would be good to google for it? I have been looking up stuff for 3 hours with no progress I have it where I can upload it into a folder and resize it, but both the old and new file end up in that folder, and I tried to change it but then they both go in the new folder Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/109018-upload-and-image-help/#findComment-559372 Share on other sites More sharing options...
