best solution for image uploading? - El Forum - 02-01-2009

Well I have to make a site for products selling... and the customer should have a panel for posting his products.. but he want to upload lots of pictures for a product and my aplication should store them and resize them to create a gallery.
Is there any problem if i create a folder for each product with the productID as the folder name ? I know it will be less than 10.000 products... but is this ok ? it won't hurt my ftp navigation or hosting ? The best place to store them in CI is the application folder ?
Anyone with experience dealing with this ?
Thnks a lot

Hello friend,
create the products under the userid's.
pictures/userid/unique_item_name.jpg
then sort them up with the DB, and there you go
for uploading you should use www.aurigma.com

There are no users, its only one user.. my customer
.. they will be categories for the products, but he will upload a lots of pics for each products, something like this...products
product_1
image_1.jpg
image_2.jpg
image_3.jpg
image_4.jpg
image_n.jpg
product_2
image_1.jpg
image_2.jpg
image_3.jpg
image_4.jpg
image_n.jpg
the thing is he will have 10000 products
but is better to work with a folder that has the images in.. and the folder name to be the product ID. Because you dont need to store URL's in DB.. you just know you have to grab all from the folder that has the name of the product ID.Is there a better idea ? I will check aurigma
thnxs for reply

Just 3,4, 5 or 6 per product.. i will always stick to open source.. no matter the quality of the product, for me is more important the source, and community driven.
GNU/Linux, Gedit, PHP, Codeigniter, Inkscape, Gimp, Firefox..etc user here

i was like you too, till i understood that,
if you wanna deliver quality, you sometimes have to
go a little bit commercial
