Pictures, images, and photos oh My!

Over Thanksgiving week I should be getting at least 3 people to signup and post images (at this point I'm willing to take photo CD's from them, with consent forms of course, and post them myself!). My goal is 250 images, but I might have to be happy with whatever I end up with. The profile page should be functioning a little better, maybe I can get some people to start with it now. Course the pagination doesn't exactly work right now so there will just be a flood of images on that page.... :)

Need to

go back through old posts and find links that I now need :)


Need to Do:
  1. Remove image page
  2. Remove user page (which should in turn remove all their images)
  3. Request more credits form
  4. Terms of use (find link)
  5. Pagination for images
  6. Contribute page content (including jquery light boxes for the information)


Once those are done then it's time to add the bells and whistles!

Profile working

Links to where it needs to link (minus the remove image page, which will be added when I do the full admin panel which removes image and people). Next on the list is adding content to the other pages (contribute, subscribe, and FAQ). All of that is literally just content, no bells or whistles, it's just a matter of motivation to do it :) Not as rewarding typing plain text onto a page as it is getting php to work!

A working website

almost! Working on the profile page, so it connects where it needs to connect. Trying not to spend too much time styling things right now (links and what not), just need to get all the important stuff online right now. Will add the bells and whistles week 9 (earlier I hope, but it's already week 7, so I'd rather plan accordingly). Making notes for what needs updating in the process book (and it's a lot), which should come together nicely. I'm doing many more pages than I originally thought, I just can't plan like that very well... I need to start coding it and working it out in my head to get a feel for what I need to do.

Limited Credits for users

Decided to start everyone with 10 credits to download images. There will be a link for them to "request more credits", which will display on the admin page. Not sure if the link for the admin to add more will be there for not, but I don't think that's detrimental to the workings of the site thus far.

Coming up with the basic content is proving to be a time waster. Obviously not completely wasted, but I feel like that since it's not php. Guess I have to have a completed website at the end, and that's just one more thing to check off the list!

Yes I'm behind on posts

I started out so well too... Then classes sneak up on you and before you know it you haven't posted in a while!

Everything image is working (yeh!!!!!!) just need to do the profile and the website is in perfect working order. Well not perfect, persay, but good php working order. As soon as I get a link to upload images from the profile page I will be able to have people register and start to upload more images.

Portfolio

Since I have a lot to do for the portfolio this week (which is good, I need to get everything online), I don't forsee making great strides in the senior project. I already see the tag cloud (and image tagging in general) being thrown off the list... too many other important site elements are ahead of it, just not enough time!

I'm sure I'll be crossing off other things, and a page or two might be not "as" pretty as the others, but the site will be complete and working! I hope :)
