I\'ve installed Gikary. Everything is ok, but i recieved this error mesagge when i open my album: Warning: getimagesize(): PNG file corrupted by ASCII conversion in /home/pepeco/public_html/public_html/geekary/geekage.php on line 112 any idea? thnx

Also i have a question, i only want that the admin team upload images, but i see that with geekary, any user can upload images, how can i prevent this, or what gallery package can i use only for admins? thnx

Just curious, why do you choose geekary?

I think one important consideration to make when you choose a program is to find out if the creator is still around. To my best memory, since I have been here for over a year, the creator of geekary has become inactive for a long time, and as a result people can't get much help with geekary.

I could be wrong, but I don't see many experianced geeklogers use geekary anymore. Blaine is using 4images, Squatty and most others are using Gallery. I jump between Gallery and 4images. I love some features of 4images, but it has stopped developing since a year ago also, in spite of the fact that it has reached a high level of perfection. Gallery is the most alive.

Sorry for not being able to answer your qestion. Let's hope someone would have the answer. I just want to encourage you to use the other two packages because you can get more help.

Creators often stop developing when other things take over their time and others don\'t pitch in to help out. Since you have experience with not just one but two galleys, you could easily take over one of them and continue development. This what open source is all about.

Yes, sir, Mark. I will follow your very smart instructions sir. Maybe I should start taking some classes on PHP. If I had your kind of knowlege, I would have beaten Balaine over the number of plugins he created. But, sir, may I ask what contribution you\'ve made to the Geeklog community? You must have made a great deal that make you sound so high and mighty.

Paty,

Thanks for you email. But, I prefer to answer your questions here so that others can use it in the future when they come across the same problem.

So you have tried 4images. I just installed it to two sites lately so it is still fresh in my memory. Let\'s start by installing 4images by itself and start integrating it to GL, and tell me when you get stuck.

Don\'t forget to check out the forum at Blaine\'s web site at http://www.langfamily.ca because he is the creator of the intergration hacks. Someone might have posted your problem.
