Footer?

Right now don't have one planned, not sure if one is needed. I think I can put the site info on the contact page... unless I really need a site map, but I don't think I do... I don't have to link to the credits/process book from the site do I? There will be a link to it from my portal page (obviously).

This weekend the image uploader will be working.... This is the one class I really can't fall behind in... that or portfolio prep, which I'm feeling behind in. I'm much more productive Wednesday night's than Tuesday/Thursday... maybe because I have a class earlier in the day.

My admin page rocks

At least one page is functional! I forsee a lot of cleanup for me in the future... I'm sure I have at least 30 loose ends to clean up as of now, but hopefully they don't take very long to do!

The image uploader is still giving my a little trouble, so I'm considering rethinking it a bit... I can resize images on the fly pretty easily, but obviously if I have to do a large batch at a time that won't be efficient. However if I only have to show one image at a time, such as the image preview page, that wouldn't take very long at all to resize it on the fly....

I still have to resize the thumbnail on download, since I have to show a lot of them on one page, but maybe the php book will have some insight to a better method.

Dislike's php

Okay not really, but there are times when I want to shake the laptop and knock some sense into it! I've used this code before, no reason it shouldn't be working, except it isn't. It's passing through all the variable's, the image is uploading into the correct folder, however it won't insert ANY data into the database....

Not to mention my hands are freezing, I think I'm sitting under a vent. I could use Starbucks...

Process Book Edits

Asset List

I've realized that no matter how much I plan for a site, I still end up adding in pages and working through how things will flow as I'm coding. Obviously it would be easier if that didn't happen, but thus far, such is my life :)

Images needed

It seems like I will be able to fit 7 images across, then scroll down for 7 rows, with pagination links at the bottom (right now just need the next/previous buttons, will work on page numbers at a later date if there's time). That means I'll need to import at least 100 images this weekend for testing.... Yikes! Hopefully my photography friends won't mind and that they upload at least 25 pictures each... This is why I'm not sure if I want to limit it to students (well, AI students, one just graduated last quarter, and I have a bunch of friends in other schools). I guess maybe just the .edu email account?

Gotta have content! And a lot of content at that if I want to have my word/tag cloud!

Image Uploader

So close to working!!!!!! It's uploading into the two correct folders, resizing... but not exactly correctly... But it works :) Just have to figure out what the heck is going wrong, and that will hopefully be working this week. If it is, I will be in business, and close to being ready for the beta launch next week (given I can reach a few of the photography students).

Right now I'm not verifying their emails are @stu.aii.edu, but I'm not sure if that's a big deal to me right now.... what do you think?

I have the admin account, rough coded the admin page, so that will be done on time. Everything else seems to be moving along just fine... Watch everything break tomorrow since I said that :)

Making up time

Being sick blows... At least it was now, hopefully no more the rest of the quarter!

I've been keeping track of the pages I'll need to do, and the total is up 19.... a bit higher than I thought. I do need to spend some time updating the process book, that has to be rocking by week 11 (obviously). The design might get tweaked a bit, and I want to find a printer who can print it to the edges of the paper (without me having to cut it).
