Hey guys

The project I have in mind is going to be quite a workload, so if you're not prepared to spend some serious time on it, don't bother reading on: just a warning.

I am in need of a custom upload script for my site. I want it to be something easy to use while still having quite a few good features. I'm not exactly sure how it would be done, nor if it could be done...here's my idea.

People can upload up to six files. One file is a.zip and the other five are .jpg or .gif images (Screenshots). They would go to www.domain.com/Upload for example, but all of the files the person uploads would be uploaded into a new directory - www.domain.com/Upload/001 for example. It would keep on rising numerically so that no files are overwritten and it's nice and organized.

These files would not be viewable by the general public - only downloadable via FTP. Ideally you could set the maximum file size in MB or KB (which most upload scripts allow).

If anybody thinks this is possible and would like to take a stab at it, please let me know - I've given the big details, however there may be some issues that I have forgotten.

Thanks guys. :)

I can do this for $30.
I have written similar scripts recently for photodump.com

I know a great programmer named Brian who has done alot of work for me. If you want to talk to him, I'll give you his e-mail. He can probably do this for $20 within 5 days.

Programmers keep in mind that you have to do something about not allowing the 'world' to know where the files are kept so they can't just go download them. He said only via ftp. Just a heads up. It would be quite simple if you just put them in a directory. I'd bid but I'm probably too expensive for something like this.

Besides Homeblock, has anybody done something similar?

Note: I took a look at that site, Homeblock. Looks pretty sweet. :)
