i am planning to create a web photo gallery. i know there is a lot available out there, but i really want to create my own. the problem is not about creating the photo gallery. i want it to be scalable.
the plan is saving the image metadata in the database and keep the original files in a folder. while it work perfectly, i afraid how many files 1 directory can keep. in 1 year, there going to be more than 1000 photo uploaded or more. sure it bring problem to maintain thus files. when i see big2 website out there like friendster, photobucket. the url for the image change like pic-1.domain.com/images/filename.jpg pic-2.domain.com/images/filename.jpg etc. they seems to put the image in different subdomain. Just wan't to ask anyone who did create a big-big web gallery like this. How did you do it? thanks -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
