silverglade Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 hi, i want to make a site that connects artists that have art prints to sell, and buyers. the site will have to display the art, and have various search features, and accounts, a checkout and a shopping cart. and maybe like top 100 listing. all stored in the database etc. and the customer and seller need to be able to email eachother within the site but not outside the site. thats roughly it. but i was wondering, does anyone know of the order in which i should start? i was thinking of looking up how to do a photo gallery first in php, does that sound good? then learning how to put images in a database, upload them, and display them in the database via SQL queries of different criteria i put to the images. any help GREATLY appreciated, im really excited to try to stretch my skills on this one.

shedokan Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 You need to start from the basic things, like first have a basic website then add the thing to connect to other galleries and put it into the database, learn how to upload images and display it in a gallery, add checkout etc. Start with things you need for the other things like for displaying images you need to have a gallery, for having SQL rows you need a table in the database. BTW: don't upload your images to the database if you have access to host's file system, you can have the images in a folders and name each one with a unique id and have that unique id as a string in the database. Hope I helped you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
