Creating a PHP gallery

[PhPHelper]

Hi Guys,

I've created a tutorial on creating a php gallery from start to finish thought you might find it useful.

Creating a PHP gallery

This tutorial will show you how to create a very simple gallery using php and mysql. The gallery will have a front page to show all images in the gallery they shows a thumbnail of each image. The thumbnail will be created automatically when uploaded to the gallery.

When the thumbnail is clicked a bigger version of the image will be shown along with the title of the image and a description to go with the image.

The gallery will also have a very simple back-end to let the admin of the site add and delete images. The back-end will also use a login system so only the admin of the site can access the back-end.

Here is the finished gallery so you can see what you will be creating, I’ve included a link to the login page along with the login details so you can have a look at the back-end as well.

Demo gallery - http://www.phphelpresource.com/gallery-demo/
Demo gallery login http://www.phphelpresource.com/gallery-demo/index.php?admin

Username - demo
Password - demo

For each part of the tutorial I will go through the code bit by bit then give you the full code for that section.

This tutorial will give you a foundation to work from there is a lot more that can be added to a gallery but my aim was to create a very basic gallery to help you learn how to do it.

Let me know what you think to the tutorial as feedback is always useful and will help me write better tutorials.

Thanks.
