Module development and code questions

I am having a very challenging time getting the image.module to upload images. Each time I attempt to preview or submit an image I receive this error message: You must select an image for upload.

I have not been able to find a resolution to this anywhere. I have tried using both GD2 and Imagemagick and it has worked in the past on this server. I'm hoping somebody might have an idea why this is happening.

Hi guys,

We're looking at drupal with a specific application of helping build band/artist fanbases and communities.

the recent (this tuesday) debacle on U2.Com has highlighted a need for using band websites and fan communities in a constructive and practical way to ensure real fans - not touts or scalpers - are at the front of the cue when gig ticklets go on sale.

What U2.COM were trying to do was setup a system - based on their original propoganda fansite system where real fans could get hold at face value tickets. It was very successfull and other bands, like Radiohead, Prince and others copied the model.

It wasn't perfect and one problem was that because the propoganda site was free to join, the savvy touts and scalpers simply infiltrated it with bogus accounts. They changed the propoganda site after the last big tour and started a new pay-per-view website club for fans in the hope that would work better.

Unfortunately for the band - their system went seriously pear-shaped this tuesday...fans had paid $40 to join a priority ticket sales club. But it crashed and was overloaded.

Which leads me to the topic of a REWARD.MODULE for drupal.

Am not sure how exactly it would work, but, I was thinking of something simple along the lines of:

a) the module would track the length of time a user is registered and regularity of logging in.

b) how many posts they make to the forums/blog

There are certain pages I don't want appearing in the "most popular" or "most recently viewed". Is there any way of excluding them from the statistics, or of customising the "most ..." lists to only include certain kinds of content, e.g only stories and weblogs but not books ?

Thank you for any suggestions.

BTW I have been using Drupal for 1 month now, and have moved my own website over from MT. I am extremely impressed by the flexibility of the software, and also the excellent support.

Hello everybody!
is there a way to know the type of the niode currently displaying from inside a block?
i.e. is $node->type defined inside a block? can I use it?
i'm asking this cause I've seen book.module use arg(0) and arg(1) to know the node type and node id of the currently displayed node; is there a better way? (some global variable, a function to call...)

why is there a period at the end of emails sent by the notify module?

Hi,
I would like someone to simply explain how to get a project node to display all the data entered when creating the project...just like the drupal project overview page at http://drupal.org/project/drupal which includes:
