ok, i had no idea what to make the title of this thread to get the answer i was looking for...

but i wonder what script these image hosting sites use. I'd like to have something similar for my gaming guild to upload screenshots and such.

I tried coppermine, but it just seems too difficult to admin.

I'm looking for something that anyone can upload to, or even better intergrate with phpbb and use the upload mod for that forum.

If not intergrated, anything that is simple to admin and use would be good.

thanks

There are a couple of complete solutions that come to mind.

1. http://www.phpimagehost.com

2. http://www.ktools.net/image_hosting_site.php

I haven't used them yet, but I am looking at implementing one of them for image hosting.

For basic uploading of images without creating accounts you may want to look at this: http://celerondude.com/index.php?a=s.

Good luck with your project.

Ive custom built my upload scripts, but this was about 2 years ago and I couldnt find a good fully featured script that fit my needs, so I made my own.

If your decent/good at php and know exactly what kind of script you need, then making your own shouldnt be too hard.

The free ones are nice if your needs are basic, but they always add in some really bad features and place them deep into the script so that I cant take them out/fix them.
