Batch Upload & More Suggestions

Really like the new drag and drop batch upload

Here's a few more ideas I hope you'll incorporate.

1. Display picture/video metadata (EXIF/IPTC) title, comments and date (when available), followed by SuperMotors comments field.

2. Make use of picture/video metadata (EXIF/IPTC) keywords in SuperMotors searches.

(See metadata (EXIF/IPTC) of photos in 'CB Radio & Antenna' album)

3. Improve the album reordering (move up/down) method with drag and drop.

Al,

Glad you like the drag & drop feature. I'm loving it!

Regarding the metadata, we will add this to the list of feature requests. I'll be honest, I need to learn more about the EXIF/IPTC, but from my brief research, it looks like our image manipulation software on the server supports it. It's more a matter of figuring out the best way to integrate it with the website and reading the posted metadata from files and inserting it into the database. We'll get it all figured out. At this point I can't give you an ETA, though, as there are several other things ahead of it on the list.

This is one of the things that is "higher up" on the list of feature requests. Things like being able to replace pictures instead of posting new ones (great for forum signatures), mass-deleting, moving files from one section to another, easier batch re-ordering of files/folders, image manipulation (cropping, rotating), etc. are the things we're planning to implement.

New features like these will always announced in our monthly newsletter.

Thanks,
