Image manipulation if you are feeling up to it

Something to basically wrap the GD library functions but also take some of the pain away and maybe add some function to do things like resize images and create thumbnails.

bleh.. I have no experience at all with GD.

Then come up with your own idea

You could do something with caching.

For my reference mainly, and for people to suggest extras:

Validation Class:

• Secure (general security)
  username validation (remove spaces, etc)
  Password validation (checks security level (types of characters required))
  SecurePass (encryption and salt)

Users Class:

• login
  register
  available (checks availability of username and email and anything else)

Looks good!

Maybe you should just to a login / register combined thing most of the methods inthe validation class would make more sense in the login one.

and "general security" is never a good idea, people use it and assume they are protected form everything.

well.. im doing them seperate because login checks data, but register enters data and im trying to get register to check an array also. (so they can enter any details and it will hopefully get entered)

Hmm okay, well its up to you really, but the "available (checks availability of username and email and anything else)" methid should defiantly be part of the user class.

What i need is the key of the array name and the content to go together into the database for registration.. Any ideas?

/edit: got it.

I don't really get your use of the while loop there In fact I have no idea what you mean

Also it should probably be a post in php help

Got it. see above

Ah fair enough !

Yes that method makes a lot more sense.

Also, any code submission should be done in attachments here on PM me so I can add to the main .zip file.

no where near done yet, im working on getting it all entered into the database.. kinda difficult without the mysql class :/

you are not forced to use the other library files. But yeah I can see how it would be

Do something that downloads images from a site

$website = "http://google.com";
$folder = "./folder/images/"
download($website, $folder);

If you think that would be useful then feel free to make it and I will put it in

Give it a go?

<?php
function download($url, $save_to){
    if(file_put_contents($save_to, file_get_contents($url))){
        return true;
    }else {
        return false;
    }
}
?>

Isn't it that simple?
