Image Gallery Per User

http://www.lullabot.com/articles/how_to_build_flickr_in_drupal

I am currently workin with this, although I followed the tutorial, it seems to be dysfunctional.
...but ya, this does seem to be a hot topic in a number of places... curious if anyone has any other info.

The Image gallery module lets us organize and display images in galleries. The problem is that only site's amnistrator can create new galleries and users must choose one of existing image gallery.

I would like that user can create our image album using taxonomy but a user must only modified our taxonomy list of galleries, is it possible?

Well I don't see anyone mentioning this here so I guess I will - you may or may not already know about this but there is a module called Acidfree that I believe accomplishes this.

http://drupal.org/project/acidfree

I have only played around with it a bit so I cannot speak to how well it works but I thought I would throw it out there.

Good luck - if you come up with a nice solution please let me know as I am looking for the same thing.

Hi,
Here s a new thing I tried and still working,,,(means a user gallery function like orkut/facebook)

First you have to create a content type photo with "image field" and an imagecache preset named"gallery"
after that import the following view...

$view = new view;
$view->name = 'gallery';
$view->description = '';
$view->tag = '';
$view->view_php = '';
$view->base_table = 'node';
$view->is_cacheable = FALSE;
$view->api_version = 2;
$view->disabled = FALSE; /* Edit this to true to make a default view disabled initially */
$handler = $view->new_display('default', 'Defaults', 'default');
$handler->override_option('fields', array(
'field_image_fid' => array(

Have you actually developed it? That would so rock. Thank you.

That's very helpful indeed! I have actually set up most of this (Except the contidional_field and the diverse types of media, that's a brilliant idea! Thank you very much for that). But for some reason neither the gallery nor the "Add more media" links are displaying on the selected type of content. I have no idea why, I used to do this very simply and quickly in drupal 6 with Views Attach and Arguments.

What would be really really helpful would be to know exactly what parameters you gave to the nodereference_url field in the "Media" content, AND the Contextual Filter in the Views. That I would really really appreciate, because I've been on trial and error for hours and hours, I thought I'd just save time and ask someone who has accomplished it.

Again, thank you!
