      It’s already possible. http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,24473.0.html

        what if all these things would be available in the next version? is there enough people to provide development for such an idea?

          The next version will not have much of the features in this thread. I might do the phpThumb thing, but that will be implemented little bit differently than I first thought, so it will not be such as flexible.. Eg. not sure if I make it store the original uploaded image and do the various modifications to separate files on gallery basis.. I’ll see what I can do.

          After the next version of MaxiGallery, I will concentrate only on bug fixing.

          I’m going to do a new gallery resource for MODx 0.9.7+ some day and that’s when I get back to this thread. So keeping that in mind, all feature requests are welcome.

            Unless there is a function I’ve not yet discovered, I think the layout of thumbnails would be greatly improved if we had the option of setting just the height or the width. If just the width is set, then images of different dimensions should line up in columns; if just the height is set, them images will line up in rows. At the moment, galleries made up from different sized images tend to look untidy, lining up neither vertically nor horizontally.

            Oh, I see, there is a ways to do this. Select the &max_thumb_size parameter, set the dimension (height or width, whichever is the important one to you), and then make the other dimension very large. Unless you have an image that is more elongated than the ratio you have set in width and height, then it should work.

              I’ve modified MG (0.6) to be able to add title and description at the same time as you upload the file.

              Also modified it to allow anonymous uploads. That could be good if using password on a folder, no need to register/log in.

              If someone else thinks this could be useful perhaps it will find it’s way into later versions? Pretty easy to implement.

              0.6 (r165) works fine, only some warning about date in MODx logs. And if I set both keep_bigimg=1 and specify max_big_size it doesn’t save the big pic. But probably me doing some error, will check in to it and report if needed.

              Thanks you for a great snippet!

                I just started using MODx and your MaxiGallery so don’t know if it’s too late to give any input, but this was linked on the first page of this thread:

                http://www.stickmanlabs.com/lightwindow/

                and it looks like an amazing gallery, complete with document and video support! I would love for something like this.

                I am trying to move a hobby site of mine from Joomla to MODx and would like a nice, clean method of displaying both picture and video galleries. The link above looks like one of the best I’ve seen so that would get my vote!

                Again, thanks for your work on this and your help on my previous questions!

                  Most of those features are available on MG right? If not they would be a nice addition.

                    I think it should be nice to add possibility of tagging. So, if I create a new gallery, I want to add some tags to every image, and then to use them in searching. I think it is quite useful feature. I have read some posts about it. If you have any comments about tagging... Thanks.

                      hello,
                      i like the actual system very much (and my users too wink )but would be cool to be able to use something like FancyUpload for the galleries..
                      That looks really nice indeed.. I’ll put it into consideration when doing the new picture management section.

                      I really like to have a multiple upload option in MG like this fancy upload (http://digitarald.de/project/fancyupload/2-0/showcase/photoqueue/).
                      We need something like this for a big websites that we are going to launch in 2 weeks, I have MG implemente now but I get a lot of feedback that the upload way its done now is very time consuming (I can not give them ftp and ziplib is not installed ider on my server)

                      would it be hard ti implement fancy upload? and if we would pay you what would it cost for you to implement this (or any other way to mass select files and upload them)
