Way too many image/multimedia galleries!
All started when I thought "hmm, let´s add a new feature to my site when I upgrade it to Drupal 6.x... image galleries for me and my users aswell".
Meet hell.

The mystery of the disappearing image...
Has anyone had the issue of an image appearing on one page node and not on another? I have a case where the image:
http://dev5.playpoi.com/sites/playpoi.com/themes/playpoi_NEXTGEN_v02/ima...
appears here:
http://dev5.playpoi.com/about-poi with:
![]()
but not any of the sub nodes such as here:
http://dev5.playpoi.com/about-poi/why-poi
http://dev5.playpoi.com/about-poi/poi-history
etc. with:
Location Based Image Galleries?
I know it can be done, but I'm looking for the best way to achieve image galleries based on locations. Say I have 20 offices and I want a photo gallery for each office. Each office should be able to login and add photos only to their gallery. Each office's location should be visible on a map and have location info, and office details attached to it.
I have to give each office a unique login to manage their photos. Also, I would like to be able to see "All offices in CA" or "All offices in Zip Code 90210"
What's the best way to do this?
Thanks!
Read moreNew Module: Image Nodes Now Inherit The EXIF and IPTC Metadata of the Image Uploaded
From the MAQUM (Metadata Aware Quick Upload Module) project page:
Read moreMAQUM is short for Metadata Aware Quick Upload Module. MAQUM works with (and relies upon) Drupal's image module to upload images. Instead of uploading an image directly with the image module, upload an image through MAQUM and MAQUM will process your image's metadata and create your image node. ExifTool must be installed on your server as MAQUM requires it to read your images' metadata.
Cross post: project outline and UI design for an AJAX powered image gallery
I just posted my outline and UI design for a new image gallery module to Drupal on the Raincity Studios blog. It uses CCK, imagefield, and imagecache, and has both galleries and images as nodes.
I'm looking for feedback on the idea, and to see if people are interested in having this built, either through a reverse bounty or some other method.
UPDATE:
some projects following this slides are now existing, see here :
Read moreWhich image modules for online magazine ?
Hello,
I'm hesitating to choose image module for my online newspaper. It's rather large one, which tens posts everyday (and I'm sure there'll be about 100 posts from members everyday soon). Each post contains 1-2 images. There should be a few galleries embedded in certain posts.
I have now two solutions to start with:
- img_filter (http://drupal.org/project/img_filter): use Upload to create attachment for node, simple and light. But I don't know if it's possible to embed one image into multiple posts (for instance, some logo).
Drupal Labeler for enhancing user experience in Image Searching
Searching has always been a very important issue in any Photo Gallery Application/Image databases .People post different kind of pictures related to things they are passionate about and this creates a big Image database .Such sites using Drupal's labeler will benefit in search results . But searches also have to depend on the labels assigned to the images which are usually set,when they are added to the database .
Read moreImage Manipulation GUI
I've written a module, Image Overlay, to allow users to "draw" shapes on images with JQuery UI & canvas, and save the result as an image node. (Try it out.) Shapes are draggable and resizable. I've kind of stalled at this point, and could use some help, so I think I'll be applying as a student. I think this module could provide very useful tool to many drupal sites, including social sites (photos), techinical sites (notes & schematics), educational sites (maps, historical battleplans), and many others I haven't yet thought of.
My proposal is to expand and update Image Overlay:
EDITED to update timeline, show tables and added image of control and links to screenshots. EDITED on March 29th 1:15pm EDT, to add mockups.
Create new actions for Imagecache
The imagecache module is awesome now but it has only 3 actions: scale, resize and crop. My proposal for SoC is use imagecache 2.0 and the hook_imagecache_action (http://www.darrelopry.com/story/imagecache-2x-beta) to create new actions like:
- Watermark
- Rounded corners
- Borders
- Insert text
- Insert image
- Rotate
- And so on
There are a lot of new possible actions, you can go to imagemagick options for more action examples: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/command-line-options.php
Read moresun's vision for handling embedded/inline content and Wysiwyg in Drupal
.
.
As some of you know, I've recently taken over maintenance of Inline and Image Assist, and initiated the Wysiwyg project. That was not only caused by personal interest, but also to take the necessary steps to realize the long awaited Inline API. You might ask yourself, what those three modules have in common or to do with each other at all: They deal with user input, allow to embed complex contents into a content, and provide an interactive GUI for that. If you already had the chance to work with them, you already know that there is a rather hidden
, non-obvious hard-dependency between them.
Although I'd really like to discuss both topics (Inline and Wysiwyg support) separately, the gained experience on these topics enforces us to discuss them concurrently. The following mockup hopefully explains why: (see attachment to view in full size)
