Hi, <br /><br />I am about 3 months old in the building of websites.<br />I am a bit of a geek, so it is coming along at a good pace.<br />I am looking for 3 different scripts.<br />Although it is difficult to be sure I am using the right vocabulary,<br />I am looking at putting features in my website that allow me to:<br /><br /><!--coloro:red--><span style="color:red"><!--/coloro-->1)Have visitors upload their pictures.<br /><br />2)Vote on certain items on the site.<br /><br />3)Assign a few Guestbooks. I saw the guestbook button<br /> on the cpanel and looked at it, but perhaps I need a good tutorial.<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc--><br /><br />Anything you can suggest will be so very appreciated.<br /><br />Yours Truly,<br />April<!--content-->
April, you probably want some kind of photo gallery. I recommend <a href="http://gallery.sf.net/" target="_blank">Gallery</a> (they just released the second beta version of Gallery 2.0, which promises to be sweet) or <a href="http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/" target="_blank">Coppermine</a>.<br /><br />As for the others, I can't help you much, since I never used guestbooks or polls in my websites. I know of some software packages that have polls incorporated but they're much more than you're asking (like phpBB and Invision Power Board - the one we're using right now here on TCH, which are fully featured online bulletin boards).<!--content-->
