I want each of my users to get their own image gallery. They can create multiple gallerys and people can view their gallerys from their profile page.
I am using a few modules to upload images into articles and these images are available to users as well for some reason. Which modules should I use that will seperate the websites images from their images.
Also, is there a way for users to trade images? Like push an image to another users inbox?

Gallery 2
I have found that the best way to overcome this is with the Gallery 2 software. http://gallery.menalto.com
- You can use the gallery.module to integrate it into your Drupal site and this will allow you seperate images uploaded using the image.module from the Gallery software.
Bearing in mind, this is what I have found to be the best for this solutions and opinions may differ.
I agree, as far as user
I agree, as far as user galleries are concerned. G2 has many features. the only down side.. and its not really a down side, is the admin has to be done through G2 where it releates to images.
if you run Tinymce you can also add the G2 image module found here http://g2image.steffensenfamily.com/index.php?title=Main_Page
a very nice addition.
Thanks for the help. I
Thanks for the help.
I installed these modules. I uploaded 2 images as admin as a test. When I log in as a user and click on 'gallery' from the menu this user can see admins images. How can I make each user only see their own images from this menu? I want everyone to be able to see each others photos but clicking this link should onlyshow your own photos.
Also, is there a way to strip it down a bit? I want to make it very basic and very easy for them.
you will have to investigate
you will have to investigate the setting in the gallery 2 admin area. each module in G2 has setting that can be altered and the like. there are ways to hide albums, password protect albums and the like.
G2 has fantastic documentation over in their community. It would behoove you to brush up on some of what can be done, or not done with G2.
I took a look at the gallery
I took a look at the gallery community but I didnt exactly find the answer to my quesiton. Im wondering if it is even possible to do what I have in mine.
What I imagine is that each user can create albums and upload photos. I want it to be completly integtrated with drupal. When someone is looking at their profile page they will see 3 albums across the top and can click into them to see more photos. Each users albums should be completly indepedant so they cannot modify any pictures not belonging to them.
This seems fairly dtraight forward but I cant accoplish it. Right now when I upload a photo as admin it is available to users when they click into their own gallery. Infact, im not even sure if my users are even getting their own gallerys. I think its just taking them to a central gallery location.
Has anyone made the changes that I have mentioned on their drupal website?
I am looking for the same
I am looking for the same thing I think. I want to know how to create a link in my user_profile.tpl.php template that when clicked by a visiting user to another user's profile, they get sent to that user's User Album. I have successfully set up the User Albums but can't get the link to work from the profiles. If I click on the link I put in there now, it takes me to MY user album.V4.7.3
