similar to: Ruby Interface Recommendations Photo Gallery Creation?

Hi all, I'm looking for a web photo gallery for my personal web server at home. Till now I've done the galleries manually from Adobe Photoshop Elements, but I feel that is a dead end, kinda', besides the fact that the galleries created are rather static.

Hello, Iam providing access to many images on a share to windows users from my linux samba over the internet. The problem is that I need thumbnail viewing because of the nature of this library and thumbnails take to much time to load it seems as though it is actually loading the entire image to then display the small thumbnail. Is this true? Also isnt there some kind of caching that can be

hey all, I have 3 tables like this: Images (id,name) Tags (id,name) ImagesTags(imageid,tagid) in my image model I do a "has_and_belongs_to_many :tags" but to make it work I need to rename ImagesTags(imageid,tagid) to Images_Tags(image_id,tag_id). My question is that given that I can''t rename the table, is there any way to make it work with the original names? Second question:

I have a little image gallery application in rails enough for small galleries (20< photos). But as images increase and the user needs to scroll down the page it starts getting anoying to see all pictures... I thought pagination but then I saw this AJAX goodness http://www.apple.com/getamac/ads/ As you can see the videos scroll right/left when the arrows are pressed in a circular manner

Programs with special uncommon file formats (not jpg) often register a shell extension in Explorer that offers thumbnails for these files (since the files otherwise wouldn't have previews). When I trigger in a Wine application (eg. SketchUp) the File Open dialog, I can see previews of the files (skp files) in the preview panel. This means the shell extension does work in Wine. The Shell

Hi, With some help from Quinn_Storm, iXce, maniac103, mikedee and KristianLy :), I've managed to modify switcher.c and make a new plugin: thumbnail. The plugin shows thumbnails of windows when cursor is moved over a task button in taskbar. Screenshot: http://pix.nofrag.com/b0/7a/051d45e25bfffed09eeb9b00e383.jpeg Download:

I''ve got a bunch of dynamically generated link paths that I want to use to link some dynamically-generated image paths. Specifically, I want to link thumbnails in a gallery to the larger images. But I''m stymied by Rails'' syntax. I can''t figure out how to do this. I tried this: <%= link_to(image_tag("../../images/photos/photo.photogroup/TN_

I''m creating a simple portfolio site for a painter. I have a painting and an image model with following relationship: Painting has_many :images Image belongs_to :painting On the edit screen the user can edit the Painting data as well as upload pictures for a thumbnails and full size image. The Image model extracts filename, width, and height from the uploaded file, saves those

total rails nuby here. I have a table "thumbnails", hence the model Thumbnail. I''m extending the Thumbnail class with a few constants needed for thumbnail cropping: class Thumbnail < ActiveRecord::Base SOURCE_FILE_PATH = "path/to/source" TARGET_FILE_PATH = "path/to/target" TARGET_WIDTH = 100 TARGET_HEIGHT = 100 end Now, in my controller

I see that the SVN version of the excellent file_column plug-in can create thumbnails using the url_for_image_column helper. This uses Rmagick to create the thumbnail... Quick question... Let''s say the file is a TIFF image - can the helper create a JPG version of the thumbnail for display in the browser? Curious if the plug-in can handle that transform with some creative use of the

I have a model using attachment_fu (via has_attachment) and I''m creating thumbnails for the attached images. I have an extra field ''foo'' that I''m validating on create with validates_presence_of :foo. One problem arises when I upload an image: The ''foo'' is not propogating down to the thumbnails. What should I put in my model to grab the

Dear list, This is a copy of a mail sent to Max Kuhn, original author and maintainer of the odfWeave package, which seems not to have received it. It reports a problem that seems to be very implementation specific (reproductible on three Debian testing amd64 machine, does *not* happen on two i686 Debian testing systems, does *not* happen on an Ubuntu 11.06 amd64 machine) and therefore not

Hi, I have an Image model that is attached to a item. The image was uploaded through attachment_fu. Now, I want to reuse the same image for a new item. I tried several tips found online. For example in http://danieloshea.com/articles/254-cloning-images # Create a clone of an image and it''s thumbnails. def create_clone c = self.clone self.thumbnails.each do

I''m trying to keep my rails app lean and mean and want to avoid (if possible) dealing with image uploads, thumbnail generation, running RMagick etc. I was excited about Amazon letting you upload files directly from the browser to your S3 bucket (http://doc.s3.amazonaws.com/proposals/ post.html) but I couldn''t figure out how to generate thumbnails - has anyone figured this out?

Hello friends, I have configured attachment_f. It''s working fine on Local(development) system but giving problem on production. Basically on production the attachment_fu is not able to generate thumbnail image it saving the original size image. Below is the configuration. has_attachment :content_type => :image, :storage => :file_system, :max_size

Anyone else having this issue with thumbnails? has_attachment :content_type => :image, :storage => :s3, :max_size => 500.kilobytes, :resize_to =>

Hello all, I''m fairly new to RoR, have done many different tutorials, but am now trying to build something on my own. I would like to create a portfolio gallery. I plan on using customized thumbs, not scaled, but custom cropped and resized in Photoshop. The reason for this is these will not be photos but portfolio pieces and I would like the thumbs to focus on a vital part of the piece.

I''m using Attachment_Fu to save several thumbnails of a photo (resizing with ImageMagick) But when I try to crop them, nothing seems to happen to the file I want to drop and no error messages. I check the file timestamp of the thumbnail I want to crop and it looks updated. What''s strange is that ALL the other thumbnails and the original image''s file timestamps are
