Zeek, thanks I really appreciate that. I am not really that familiar with some of the things that you are mentioning but with what you are saying a user would be able to sign up, then directly upload his/her images from their digital camera right onto the website? I would want the images to be displayed similar to this http://www.webshots.com/g/55/41353-sh.html and that would be fine (a bunch of thumbnails on a single page that can be enlarged when clicked on... and the other similar features - i.e. a "Next Photo" etc.)
