Php Only Gallery I dont know PHP well and cant find a free script

[BooZker 0]

I will pay for this. More info on payment on bottom of post.

 

Alright I know just about everything about CSS and Ruby on Rails I know more then enough to make certain apps, but i have never been good at PHP. I do know that this script would be fairly short though. Does anyone know how to make this web photo gallery with PHP only. I don't want MySQL. No need for it.

 

In my root folder I'll make a gallery folder. Inside of that will be photography, illustrations, personal, etc. Inside of those is where I want the script. So there wil be a script for each one, but each will be written the same, or should be written so I can use the exact same script in each folder.

 

In those folder will be a thumbnail and fullsize folder and a index.php file. I do not want the script to resize photos. I have an app on my Mac that makes thumbnails and makes them look like photos and gives them drop shadows, so I do not need it to do that. I just want it to simply do this:

 

Display X amount of thumbnails on the page with the html of

<a href="fullsize/*.jpg" rel="lytebox[slideshow]"><img src="*_thumb.png" alt="" /></a>

src would be filled in with the thumbnail and alt would be the name of the image. When clicked on the image a Lytebox (a variation of Litebox) will open with a slideshow with the full size image of the thumbnail (i already have that script all set up and works fine just need that rel code put in for each image displayed). I do not need it to even open a full size. So far i do NOT need it to resize and do NOT need it to display images, just get the full size image of the thumbnail.

 

So i want it to display X amount of thumbnail files in thumbs folder onto that index file and when clicked opens the matching larger image from fullsize folder and displays it using lytebox, which is already set up just needs the rel code in the A tag. I only want X amount of images per page and then another page (Example: Page [1] [2] [3] [4]...) I know you do not need MySQL for that.

 

If anyone can make this i can return the favor some how based on how well written the script is. I want it to be able to be placed http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ in where the text is. So it should fit and be able to be able to just place it there. I can give you a lot of credits or maybe 10-20 USD depending on how easy and well written it is.

Boozker,
I have a php script which reads the Images folder, confirms the presence of the matching Thumbnail in another folder and build a link for use by the Hoverbox Image Gallery. Search the Xisto for "Hoverbox". I think I posted a tutorial here, but can't seem to find it at the moment. You might be able to modify that script or PM me if you need help with it.

*edit*

Found it, right where I left it... http://forums.xisto.com/topic/41371-image-gallery-tutorial-using-hoverbox-a-php-solution-to-coding-the-hoverbox-image-gallery/

This might help booze I take a $20 , they are both non MySQL DB gallery scripts

Script 1 Helpful Guide

Script #2

Both of them seem simple enough, but the first one provides a download file with everything in it, which you can fine here.

Make sure its not monopoly money .

jlhaslip posted first so if i can find the script then ill pay him if he wants and SM you just gave me tutorials! jlhaslip sounds like he has one that doesn exactly what I want. SM the 2nd linked one has way too much code like re sizing, max size for thumbnails and stuff. I don't need all that since all my thumbs are generated already. good try thoughI'll see if i can find it jlhaslip!

No one mentioned my gallery script. Just kidding. Okay, so mine may not have the lightbox thing you want, but it should do the majority of what you want. Here's the link to it, if you want: TrueFusion Gallery. It's no fun making scripts if no one uses them. I don't want any form of payment, people using my scripts is in itself enough. You don't have to use the image uploader for it. My script was made for easy layout adaption/customization.

Nice work, trufusion. I didn't realize this was available. Scooped.

thanks! OK let me go through them and check each one. Whichever one I have to do the least tweaking. Truefusions looks like I'll have to do some tweaking to where it goes when you click on a thumbnail and some of the CSS and then jlhaslip's looks promising, but ill have to really go through the code on what I have to tweak. I don't see a way to set how many per page and then makes a new page.thanks again. I'm going to get some shut eye before bed then tomorrow I'll go through and check them out. How should i pay ? Paypal or credits or what?

Save them. Last thing I need is more credits.I might need a little gfx work one day...
