Hi, I am using HTML5. I have a <p> that is 800x600 with a solid background color. On the right edge, I would like to place a small animation of a person peeking out from behind it to the right. Is there an example code snippet I can look at? This would be Canvas, right?

Directory structure in db - ok Learn newer mysql functions - ok Looks like I have something to start with, excellent! I'll go through those links.

Perfect, thank you for that. After posting my question I was busy googleing and found an excellent starter php application. http://www.codingcage.com/2015/01/user-registration-and-login-script-using-php-mysql.html I was wondering. The application is straight forward, I cut and paste it to get a start and it works perfectly on my localhost. After a successful test login I was able to come to a plain control panel which has nothing since it was only an example. My question about this relates to the previous post by 'justsomeguy'. There is mention of linking images to albums and etc. If I allow the user to do file uploads to a directory? Can I keep the images separate from the database? In other words, I'm aware, that a file in a directory is "not" a file in the database. Simple enough, and it might be good enough for me. Do I need to use the database for anything related to the files in a directory? Is there something with the authentication system, that could represent some type of problem? Or am I simply using an authentication database then to allow access to the base filesystem (I ?think? that's what I want) right?

I am just now starting to plan an online gallery. I'm in the research phase right now, where I would like to gather whatever I might need to get it done. I'll describe what I am thinking and perhaps someone has pointers or constructive criticism on how I can organize myself. This will be a multi user gallery. A user will simply be able to create an account and add or delete images to their gallery. I would like to avoid javascript if possible. The reason for that is that I do not need anything fancy in ways of display. In other words, I want my pages to be simple, flat and lean. Mostly html5 and php. The gallery will specialize in gif and png images. The reason for this is the style of art I would like to represent. It looks best when images are not compressed unless it's lossless compression. In other words, there is no need for fancy graphics libraries. I would like to keep images in the users own folders. I don't want to encode images into a database, so I am not sure how a database would relate to the filesystem. Except for user authentication. I'm a programmer but not a web developer. It's not necessary to go over how to program, so I am asking mainly questions about how to organize the code. Perhaps how to organize them into modules. For example, I know I will be using MySQL, so how many databases do I need. Should I keep user tables together with whatever else I need and etc. As I said, I just got a glimpse of web development. I'm also looking for example code. Please don't throw a CMS at me. I said I was a programmer, but the last thing I want to do is take apart an already working system. The time to decipher something complete would be unnecessarily painful. I am looking for module like examples. I have seen hotscripts.com, which is a very nice website, but I'm not sure what I need from there. There are many galleries on the web, but has anyone here ever done something like this? what recommendations do you have, what input do you have? Thank you in advance!
