dominic600 Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 How would I go about making it so users can upload there own photos and have other people view them on there own personal profile? I just cant seem to find a tutorial that helps me on what im trying to do. Thanks, Dominic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizmola Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 I will assume you know how to make an html img tag. An image is a file. Here is the relevant page for building an upload form file-upload Typically people store the filename or a link to the filename. I'm going to assume you understand how to use mysql to update a column in the profile row. Sometimes they may need to resize the image to fit constraints. You can use http://us.php.net/manual/en/book.image.php or http://us.php.net/manual/en/book.imagick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonLewis Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 To save effort, you can also look at using www.gravatar.com since these days many people will have their e-mail address associated with a Gravatar account. Of course many places will offer this in addition to custom uploading of an avatar. But a lot of the time people just can't be bothered so they use Gravatar.
