Yet and Image Gallery Module?

I've been contemplating the release of a particular image gallery which I created for a proof of concept project. I've had a few request for this module to be released as a drupal contrib but I don't want to clutter/add to the already abundant array of image galleries currently in existent. Which is why I've post this.

The module was based on the facebook album.
demo can be found at: http://statusbook.netriftsolutions.com
login with : demo/demo
scroll down and click on one of the albums.

The module requires :
image (http://drupal.org/project/image)
image_fupload (http://drupal.org/project/image_fupload --> recommended.

Features
-> drag and drop image ordering
-> image area tagging

The module is not complete , still working on the tagging system. This module is currently integrated into another module but it is possible to extract and turn it into a stand alone module.

Just wanted to see if there would be any interest, if so then I will put in the request.

cheers

I would be very interested in this module.

My impression of what's out there right now runs the spectrum from the simplest (Image Gallery) to the most complex (Gallery).

For me, the important features would be:

1. on the fly album creation (for admin and for specified roles)
2. album as node
3. views integration
4. lightbox integration
5. on the fly album editing
6. album ownership (a user that creates an album "owns" that album)

I think the Album Photo module goes a ways towards that, but it's missing some of the key features above.

Thanks!

Hi Netrift,

The demo speaks volumes of the good work you have done. Just wanted to know if this module goes on to add some blocks to my drupal site on enabling. Your answer will help to try testing with the module in a better way.

This module is a great job!

The feature that is missing currently is that after disabling java script in browser basically you can't view images, well you can but it's not intuitive.

That would be great addition.

Cheers

thanks for this.

Ive been using it for a few days, i installed the whole statusbook modules but im only using the photo modules. Eveything looks ok :)

Im trying to replace the contib friends module with user relationship module. So i can use the tagging system but with user relations.

Hey Ken,
There is still no other photo album solution like yours. Could you release it so others could help make it better?

Hi Stieglitz,

The sphoto module is now packaged with my new SNS module. The writeup for it can be found at: http://drupal.org/node/719078

The sphoto module has some specific hooks into the sns module so you may need to do a bit of code modification if you want to isolate (remove it from sns) it. Let me know if you're still interested and I can send the required modules.

cheers
