Gallery's back

I was reading the "Theoretical BC wheel skills… " thread and clicked a link on a whim, and it worked. How long has it been back?.. if you noticed before, but weren’t trying to avoid homework by making a pointless thread like this one.

still not working for me

-grant

Works for me and Tim

It was rebooted about 10 hours ago.

Like John Childs said, the gallery software is not meant for such big galleries. The index page is going to take a while to load and other things may be slow. I may look at adding some sort of caching system to speed things up. Ultimately the next major version of the gallery software, which is currently in alpha status (and has no upgrade path to future versions), will solve the problem. I’ll probably upgrade to it as soon as it’s in beta status as according to their website, that’s when it’ll be upgradable to the latest one.

it still doesnt let me make a gallery and stuff b[ut i can look at the galleries

Works perfect for me but as always the search is still a little slow…:slight_smile:

well i go to gallery and go to that login thing and it says invalid username and pass

how exactly do you add yer pics to yer foto album?(if it is, indeed, working)

I will try to help out here. During my testing of my steps, my computer continued to freeze at the applet window. But maybe something in my steps will help out, nevertheless.

Click on the login button on the upper right. If you can’t see it, enlarge the screen to full size.

BTW, the log in is case sensitive. I tried my other screen name and it didn’t work, so I typed it in with the upper case letters in the correct places and I was able to log in.

Once you log in, you will see a screen and in big bold letters, it says, “Hey Add some photos”

  1. Look up to the right and there is a pull down menu entitled, “ <admin options>”
  2. click on the down triangle next to admin options
  3. at the top of the pull down menu is “add photos”
  4. click on add photos
  5. Now wait a few seconds
  6. You will see a screen that has some tabs at the top for the applet., but there is also a popup that says something like, “Do you want to trust the security of this applet?” or something like that. Just click yes.
  7. Back to the Tab menu. Click on the applet tab. I just tried this, and it wants to download the applet automatically (my online just froze the four times I wanted to do this). However, when I first got the applet several months ago, I downloaded at night, following the prompts. I started it just as I went to bed and by morning it was downloaded. I have dialup so it took a while.
  8. You will see this “ Use the Gallery Remote Mini Applet to upload pictures. It will take a short while to download.”
  9. The following steps are from memory, because at this step it is freezing up, but I will try to help. As I recall, you have to do one big download for the applet and every time thereafter, you have to wait a few moments before uploading when you have to add photos.
  10. Eventually, a window appears that asks you to add photos. You will have to browse your computer to find the image. Click on the image names you want to upload. Then, I think there is an upload button or a submit button. Click or double click on it.
  11. Depending on your hookup and number of images, this might take a while.
  12. Now, lets suppose you uploaded two pictures successfully. You edit those and give them descriptions and then decide you want to add more photos. Go back and do all the steps to add photos. You will do this and then you might see, “Problem…” ignore this and keep on clicking on the images you want to upload. It will work. For some reason, I have this happen every time I want to upload more images, but with a break in the upload session.
  13. Hopefully that will help.

Is it the same username and password for the gallery as the message board? If it is, i tried, using the proper case, and it says that either my username or password is incorrect. Any help?

Thanks Gilby!!! :smiley:

When I type in my name and password it does the same as usual, but then instead of loggin me on, it just goes back to the way it was, it doesn’t actually log me in, so I can’t change my gallery yet, which is why I’ve wanted to go onto the Gallery for so so long

Jas’o :thinking:

Well, it lets me create a new nested gallery and it lets me upload pictures to it, but when I try to move pictures to a new gallery nothing happens.

Is it just me?
